I'll have to think about some options, it's just that I'm getting fed up with driving something slow when I've got more than one passenger (which is quite often these days), the Jeep uses petrol like a 4 litre (18 mpg) but goes like a 1.6 litre

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I recently made a trip in my 944 S2 coupe from Bristol to Worcester complete with 2 goddaughters and their 6ft 8 father. the girls are aged 4 and 7 both very tall for their age. I addition the boot was full to bursting with luggage. No complaints about the jouney the youngest was abit miffed I had no SCLUB 7 CDs though. For my trouble I was left with 2 bits of Jessie from Buzz Lightyear and 1 sock in the back of the car.
Yeah, it is possible, but not much fun for adults - the front seats need to be far forward, too.
I've had a 944 cabrio and turbo, and cabrio was slightly worse if I remember because of hood mechanism.
I'm 1m91 tall and I managed to "sit" in the back...lying frome side to side!
Seriously, I once had a girlfriend at the back who is approximately 1m60 and she still hit the roof...
These back seats are a joke, only useful to put bags in instead of in the boot where luggage slide frome side to side.

Now now, nobody likes a show-off casanova.
8-)
I once had a lift from my Auntie in her 944 and it was certainly an experience. I'm just 6 foot and I remember having to sit in the back between the front seats i.e. Both feet near the hand brake! With my head sticking out the sun roof!! I remember it fondly....
...because I had a friend in the passenger seat who is definitely taller than her
But unlike you JOHNF at least I have back seats for this

The handbrake?
On mine (LHD) it's on the left of the driver's seat...Shouldn't it logically be on the right of the driver's seat on a RHD model?

Thanks for your responses guys, it confirms what I suspected - not ideal for getting teenage kids into (why do they grow so tall these days).
I'll have to think about some options, it's just that I'm getting fed up with driving something slow when I've got more than one passenger (which is quite often these days), the Jeep uses petrol like a 4 litre (18 mpg) but goes like a 1.6 litre
.
I've always liked the 944 and thought it might be a good compromise as most of the 4 seat coupes with legroom are less exciting - still Cougar V6s are dirt cheap.
Cheers,
JSG.
Hi all,
Has anyone carried teenagers / small adults in the back seats of a 944, 928 coupe? Or is it a case of very small kids without legs only, as per Cerberas, 911s etc?
I assume that the coupe has a bit more space than the cabriolet due to the hood and additional body stiffness, is this correct?
Cheers,
JSG.
PS this is one of my serious questions.
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
