How is 2015 z4 for a short driver? Wife is 5’1”

Good evening and welcome aboard.
May this be the start of a long and fruitful membership.
My wife is about 5'2" and she happily drives my E89. Plenty of adjustment in the seat height, steering wheel reach etc.
However, you need to sit your wife in one first. Whilst the driving position can be adjusted, the length of the bonnet cannot, so she needs to be sure about that.
Whereabouts are you?
Maybe someone nearby could let you try theirs for size first?

Excuse me old chap.Scubaregs said:Really it comes down to how good the deal is on the car versus the cost to change the wife.
Welcome. My Fiancée is barely 5 foot, and although she has yet to drive my G29 we have set up a seating/driving position she will be comfortable with.
This is a wife-based query.

Scubaregs said:Yes, [ref]john-e89[/ref], but I'm Scottish which more than makes up for it.
As my old aunty from Greenock would say... "what I lack in height, I make up in spite!", I'm descended from a long line of nasty wee mean Scottish people!.... and my other half hates the Z4 with a passion and is always planning its demise! if you do get an E89 make sure it has PDC

OP.
My wife is same height, and has short legs. She fits absolutely fine. Our car is an E89 and has manual seats.
The E89 is a much better fit for shorter people than tall people anyway.
PS. There are some very silly people on this forum, just ignore them. I do.... :wink:
