My younger brother hated that he never caught up to me or our dad. Blamed our mom on stunting his growth. :smile:

There's another twist on the ingress/egress routine: be sure to warn any girls you may ask out to wear slacks or jeans... if you don't (and they wear a dress) you may get a punch if you "help" them by holding the door for 'em. :wink:
Doc, I always thought that was the whole point of the chivalry bit of holding the door open for the lady!
I still enjoy doing that for my wife of 35 years!

Correct, Graham! And a <span style="font-style: italic">true</span> gentleman would first explain to the lady the method of proper entry into the seat (sit first, then swing both legs in)!
 
He my fellow Sports Car lovers ! A welcome tip especially to the tall people but really to all ... Sit down first, knees and body pointing out then turn in to the interior ! And get out of the car the opposite reverse way ...
feet and knees first then stand
The lift one leg and drop in method can be harmful and will seem foolish then ... This is for all Sports Cars especially low to the ground models like Triumph Spitfires and tall people ...
