I tried putting the seat back a little, but found the accelerator pedal was to low! (as in could really not push past 1/2 throttle...)

Many thanks everyone for sound advice which I have taken on board as you read on...after much test driving today I purchased a 2 door Wrangler manual sport in petrol (diesel not avail) and I am stoked! I pick it up next week and I can't to get amognst it! With the seat raised to its highest position, and with the seat pushed back as far as it can be I am able to bend the kness and have the left leg almost 90 degress straight flat to the floor when not engaged with the clutch and this is in the sweet spot! All the best, Iain
