What do you hate about the Euro?

[SPQR]

Is anyone else annoyed by the A-pillar blind spot on the CL9? I can't work out if it's my seating position not quite right or what but several times I will approach a T-junction or roundabout and not see a car coming from either direction until it is passing in front of me. It's starting to bother me =/

Yep. Lots of near misses. Scary at times. Combination of the car's own motion relative to other cars and the A pillar can blot out a whole car.

it's not always the drivers' fault as cars have design flaws. Unfortunately the courts always pin it on the driver and not the car.

Might be seating. try a different position that's comfortable and give it a whirl~

Seat is all the way back and then I only just fit. Euros could do with more rearward seat travel. There is definitely a serious blind-spot issue with the CL9 A-pillars.

I'm 6"2 and can barely reach the clutch you must be a giant if the seat is all the way back

Yeah the vision's awful, probably the worst car for it i've ever driven.

Have you try driving a Civic?

I'm 182 and I'm fine with the CU2

[chuboy]

Glad I'm not the only one. Could it be the seat height?

[marquee]

I'm 185 and mines fine try moving your seat forward more you don't need it all the way back

[CU2 Euro 09]

I'm 6'3" and haven't found the A Pillar an issue. Seats all the way back. Too bad for the rear passenger as they get no leg room. Rear visibility isn't that great though.

My CL9 is an auto and so I have no need to extend left foot to the firewall. I might be a giant but all Honda cars have insufficient rearward travel on the front seats. Sit in a falcodorion or most European cars and you'll find decent rearward travel. The Falcon has very poor steering wheel height adjustment.

The problem with Honda cars lacking rearward adjustment means that my right foot is always at an uncomforable angle (unless at full throttle!). My left knee is alway bent hard up against the centre console.

Remember that this is a 'what do you hate' thread.
