Right so this is a bit of a weird topic but here goes..
I've had numerous amount of 206s in the past but for some reason in really struggling for legroom in this one. It's got to the point where it's causing my right knee to hurt because it's constantly slightly bent. (I'm 5 11') my question is, are there 206 seats which will slide back further on the runners than others? Or is there any other way of getting it further back as I don't want to have to sell it but I can't carry on as I am. It's a 2003 206 1.4 'look'
Many thanks

You sure you have the seat adjusted the same as before? If you adjust the height it will drop the seat further back thus creating more leg room. Im 6ft and have a 'look' and manage just fine to be honest.

From the forward positon to the furthest back position i have 10 inches of travel.

The furthest back position is ridiculous, i can just about put my foot on the pedal with the leg totally straight,
i have average leg length.

Would appear something is amiss, mines a 4 door mind, or could be you have a 2 door and is different.

Mine is a 2 door and it's just a really horrible pain I'm getting in my knee due to driving
