What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2006 Mercedes-Benz SLK
2005 |
2dr Hardtop conv. |
Ample leg room and headroom - up to about 6ft 5 is fine
I'm 6ft3 and with the roof off I don't get too ruffled unless I go over about 85 mph
Lots of other things to like (and the running costs arent too horrendous) but I'm limiting myself to my top three

TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2014 Volkswagen Passat
2015 |
The Passat's top strength remains a non-sporting attribute: never mind how the specs compare, the midsize Volkswagen has the roomiest interior in its class. Rear seat legroom seems limo-like compared to the merely adequate space inside the Mazda. Up front, there's also plenty of stretch-out space for heads, shoulders, and knees. The Passat's trunk is also among the largest, though in this area the Mazda comes up only a cubic foot short.

4dr Sedan turbocharged 140hp 2.0L I4 Diesel 6-speed automated manual FWD |
SEL Premium seating is fantastic. Definitely worth the cost of the upgrade over the mid-grade seats.

rear seat room is exceptional. can handle long-legged folks with ease and those with large shoe sizes. enter and exiting with larger folks not a problem either.
