I think you're being optomistic about the rear legroom in a GTA mate :? :D

Depends who is driving though doesn't it. You will be lucky to get a banknote in the space behind me when I'm driving. If you had 4 short arses you would be fine :wink: :lol:

Me, Dave G and the two missuses went all the way to Le Mans & back 4 up with luggage a couple of years back.

Definately not limousine style comfort but just about adequate if you sit 'legs apart'

A610 is a different matter though, the door cards are just a bit too intrusive for the 'legs apart' seating and there's no boot.

I have seen modern 2 door hatches with NO room for any legs at all the seats were virtually touching each other and the cars in question certainly did not look like a GTA or have their engines in the rear.

Having done a reasonable length journery in the rear of one I would have to disagree totally. Obviously I am average height Whilst Big MVS is NOT :lol: :lol: so for anyone under 6' 6 tall :lol: it will be reasonable :lol: :lol: :lol: for a moderate journery.

I think the space is reasonable all things considered. With me driving there is no room in the back of the A610 but that is the same in the X-Type and S60 which are hopeless considering they are supposed to be luxury cars! Whenever passengers are involved, they normally request to travel in Safrane luxury ahead of anything else.

Luggage space in the A610 is hopeless though! LOL
