New_Atlantis 3rd Gear March 11, 2018 Share March 11, 2018 (edited) Noticed that the golf and leon have weird sitting positions. The steering wheel feels off centered. Can the drivers of these makes confirm. Of is it just me? Also noticed that the leg room on the passenger side feels bigger then the driver's side. Weird. Maybe it's because of my height? 179cm? Any other makes have this issue? Edited March 11, 2018 by New_Atlantis ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watwheels Supersonic March 12, 2018 Share March 12, 2018 A lot of German cars are designed for the driver to adapt to the car's design, not built around the driver. Been like for a long while. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

inlinesix Hypersonic March 12, 2018 Share March 12, 2018 Mini R56 is essentially designed as LHD from ground up. Bonnet is on the left rather than right. But Steering wheel and seat is aligned. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamesc Hypersonic March 12, 2018 Share March 12, 2018 (edited) It's for driver who have one arm longer than the other. I like offset pedals as one of my leg is longer than the other 2. Edited March 12, 2018 by Jamesc 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myxilplix Turbocharged March 12, 2018 Share March 12, 2018 The camry wheel also looks slightly offset in that picture above. I've never noticed if my car had an offset steering wheel, but my pedals are offset to the right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
