    How long have you owned the car?

    No offence but I can't believe that someone can own a car and not see whether the seats can be adjusted correctly up until now. Isn't that the first thing you do when you get behind the wheel of a car!

    dont be daft
    you check your face in the mirror first

    Well well well. The seat does go up and down. Who knew?? (clearly, not me!)

    I have put it up to the highest point, which has helped a little bit.

    Thank you custardy!!

    Update -

    This - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Autosafe-Seat-Belt-Height-Adjuster/dp/B001B9CQQA - is flipping brilliant. It took a bit of head scratching to get it in place (until we realised that the clip was on upside down!) but it is just genius.

    I also found these - https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B007CM0M34/ref=cfb_at_prodpg - on Amazon, which I keep in my bag. Not needed to use them yet, as I've not been in a car other than my own, but they look promising.

    Thank you to all of you for suggestions.

    And yes SuperAllyB and maninthestreet - can see perfectly AND still reach the pedals :p:p:D:D
