2016 Mini Clubman Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh I found it easier to see out of the Mini Clubman than the Mini Hardtop. But I still couldn't see traffic lights without leaning forward if I forgot to stop well short of the thick white line. Also, the Mini's mirrors are small. Outward visibility is okay overall in the... Comparison vehicle: 2016 Volkswagen Golf / GTI |

2015 Volkswagen Golf R Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh Too often I find I cannot enjoy an otherwise excellent car on public roads because the windshield is raked too far back (yielding a deep instrument panel), the windows are too small, you sit too low, or all of the above.

2015 Mini Cooper S Hardtop 4 Door Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh I've never cared for the driving position in BMW-era Minis. Their upright windshields are positioned so far forward that I feel like I'm driving a box.

One result: even in the all-new WRX you sit high above the instrument panel in comfortable, supportive seats and view the outside world through large windows. Together with the new...

2013 Volkswagen Golf / GTI Pros and Cons Member1664 The driving stance is near perfect for me (5'10". The front seats bottoms are long enough to support your thighs. The accelerator pedal hinges from the floor so its very easy to modulate correct throttle adjustments. The automatic shift lever is straight forward and none of that gated... |

2013 Volkswagen Golf / GTI Pros and Cons Member3466 The Golf feels more like a driver's car, laid out with everything in easy reach. The Honda has tons of little buttons that require too much attention to operate while driving. |

2010 Volkswagen Jetta / Golf / GTI Pros and Cons Member3907 The driving position and visibility are, on the whole, solid. The main complaint is a rather thick rear hatch pillar that makes for a driver blind spot on the passenger rear quarter, but otherwise the visibility is excellent compared to the slit views of other cars, that seem more like... |

2008 Volkswagen Jetta / Rabbit / GTI Pros and Cons Member2975 The base model has a seat height adjustment, which allows a higher seating position when compared to the Suabaru Impreza for example. |
