What are the new BMW 330e seats like?

Hi there.

I'm interested in the new BMW 330e plug-in hybrid. I test drove the older version and found the sports seats very cramped (as I'm a big lad!). Have you any info on the G20 sports seats? Have they been improved/made bigger?

Has Honda improved the Civic's seats?

Has Honda improved the driver's seat in the new civic saloon? Had a 2012 Civic that broke my back. Now have an Accord, but would love a new Civic Saloon if the seats are long enough to support my right leg.

Can I fit electric seats to my Focus?

Hi guys.

I have just purchased a set of black leather seats for my 2009 Ford Focus Zetec model. They came out of a Ford Focus Titanium of the same year. The driver's seat on the Titanium is electric and that in my Zetec is not! Will it be ok re working etc?

Many thanks. Peter.

Do all new cars have bucket-style seats?

Hi,

I am looking at new cars and seem to find the majority have bucket type seats, which I find rub/aggravate my right thigh. Has anybody ever complained about this? The only car that does not produce this annoying affect seems to be the Citroen C4

Regards,

Brendan

What's up with my Passat's seat?

Hi guys,

Are you aware of any fault with the driver's seat in the Volkswagen Passat? I have a 2011 model and when my back shifts position when driving I can feel a panel in the backrest flexing/popping. It's extremely annoying and I was just wondering of you were aware of any other cases and if there's anything I can do about it
