being fairly tall, and having a 4 door saloon with a very large original steering wheel I have great difficulty getting in and out of the car. Can anyone make any recommendations as to a smaller steering wheel that will easily fit? I hear a mini one works very easily?
Thanks

Yep, Mini one works OK, but I personally prefer the original. Being 5'8" I don't have any problems getting in/out though..........

If you're about the same size as me, I'd recommend a 2 door saloon.... I tried a 4 door again this year and got fed up of either banging my back/hip on the B post whist banging my other hip on the wheel.
(The car drives better with the large steering wheel)

I'm 6" and there's loads of room for me in my 2-door, even when I was stripping m 4-door, that was fine. Have you moved the seat back? That'll give you more room.
