Thanks for the warm welcome even though I'm not officially here yet. My back isn't bad enough to stop me driving :wink: . It's usually the "stuck in the same driving position" and the "left foot up and down on the clutch" that seems to irritate it on long journeys.

I can solve the former with cruise and the latter with auto :)

The MR2 is a different piece of kit, the seats are ok but not that supportive for long journeys. I know the X1 is a different beast but BMW seats seem to give much more support and variation in position. The 2 is just backrest angle and seat height. I'm assuming the design is the same in the Z4 and with lumber support should be ok to get a good driving position.

I am of course also assuming the steering is rake and reach adjustable. You can see how much I don't know yet so bear with me :wink:

What I do know is when I see a car I like and will fall in love with :driving:
