if you NEED 4 seats, you'll be in a bit of trouble. unless you have petite female friends, the backseats in an FTO are pretty much useless.
my mates hate when i pick them up to go for a drive.

Agreed, it's the only thing that will make me ever get another car... Room in the back is REALLY tight.spency wrote:if you NEED 4 seats, you'll be in a bit of trouble. unless you have petite female friends, the backseats in an FTO are pretty much useless.

Where abouts are you, have you seen your friend's FTO before in the flesh?

Hey,
I'm from Bendigo, Victoria.
Yeah he's FTO is awesome fun to drive, must admit a bit small in the back. My friend is on this forum, he's fto is on here somewhere I think, his username is Brent88. I gave someone a lift last time I drove and they had to sit in the back, not good if your over 5'0 tall.
ciao

people gotta relize the car is a 2+2 not a 5 seater
definition of a 2+2: (not quoting anyone just common sence) its a 2 seater with 2 back seats for short trips and emergencies
if it was a 4 seater itd b classed as 1
but all in all this is a very small sacrifice for having a shorter length, wheelbase and ultimatly having a smaller turning circle which are fundamental elements of a (true) sports car
she has seen it and driven it
hence wanting one lol but after looking at several fto's mine is is fkn excelent condition and appreciate the condition it is in, udf have to c it to understand, 122,000 kms
