172 ph1 ASBO SLAYER
hi, welcome
the 172 is noisy, rattly, a bit short on headroom but the seat does adjust downwards, you cant fit a cat in the boot and when you fold the seats down you've got nowhere to put the rear headrests.
but... its a grin a minute to drive & punches well above its weight

im 6"2 with no problems mate.
Ickle bit rattly but its french, and adds to the fun LOL
Motorways and long journeys are fine, infact i like em in mine.
i find boot space ok for my needs. as a guide, the other day with the back seats folded down i managed to fit in 4 wheels with tyres, a box with my H&R's in, front splitter, front and rear strut braces, and a few little things like brake fluid.

Hey, welcome to CS!
Im 6"4 and i fit pretty comfortably in my Cup. Seat should adjust downwards so you'll proabaly want it ALL the way down!
Just warn anyone attempting to sit behind you that they won't have legroom...at all!
Being a Cup with less sound deadening, it can be pretty noisy on motorways so a FF is probably a bit more comfortable for long journeys but its not unbearable.
Hope you end up buying one!

About 6'4" here and there is o.k leg room up front but you wont leave anyspace behind you for rear seat passengers if this is concern. Driving postion is not the greatest whatever your height.
Could do with a 6th Gear on the m/way but not a real problem. If you find one with cruise you will be sorted.

Edit Ollies post says pretty much the same!!!!!
