Eduardo Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Tallest1 I have a 2007 110 Defender and the folding seat head room with the LR seats is a complicated point. the distance between the seat and the roof are limited due the folding system. In fact, sometimes I travelled in the back and the space between the roof and my head is just 1 -2 cm (1/2"). Considering that I'm not quite tall: 1.75 m (5.7 ft) the distance with the roof could be a problem for a tall person. I dont know the experience with Exmoor. regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tallest1 Also the anchor system is different in Exmor (as I see in the pictures) and that also can change the head room. The best way to disipate the doubts is to measure the distance in both cases from the floor to the seat and the cushion thickness. Let me check today and I can send you the measures in the new Defender. I think that you can ask Exmoor the same question and with that you can decide the best solution.

Well, alternatively, if anyone has a line on a Used Euro Tub in great shape i'd be interested in purchasing it to ship overseas! I suppose i'll also post this in the wanted category as well.
