I'm 6'2 and daily drove a NA Miata for 2 years. The newer ones are smaller though and I couldn't fit in them.

You have to pay out of pocket for the transition expenses.

I'm pondering getting a disability car for a relative. But a few things put me off. None mobility car drivers seem to be very bitter about them. If someone makes a fictious and malicious report that the car isnt being used for the benefit of the claimant, its probably going to end with a black box being fitted to it (if it doesnt come with it already). Then what constitutes for the benefit of the disabled person. You going to work, picking kids up, dropping your wife off isnt. Visiting the claimant 3 or 4 times per week, doing housework, taking them to appointments, gardening etc isnt good enough from what I read. If the claimant snuffs it, the car is taken back pretty quickly. You lose prior no claims bonus. PIP mobility higher rate is £70 per week i think. When you weigh that up with buying a 3 year old car for cash and part ex it when its 10 or so, the claimant would probably get better use out of the PIP and you wouldnt have the restrictions. If you give the claimant some cash to offset the PIP loss, its not as attractive as a proposition financially. I think if you're absolutely crippled and need significant modifications to a car, and will be driving it yourself, it makes sense. If you're a forever neet it might make sense, gives you some freedom I suppose in an otherwise shit life. But for a normal person, I don't get the appeal really, its not as attractive as it seems on the face of it, but then again, I don't give a shit about driving a car thats a few years old, and I'd resent a black box being fitted to my car tracking my every fucking move. I don't like how those genuinely disabled are being stigmatized and fucked over, by people that are bitter (about those taking the piss, but about the scheme full stop also in many cases) and the government.

6'1" and a 2018 Miata gt is my daily driver. Getting in and out is a flexibility exercise but I'm fit enough and I love the car even if my scalp is pressing up against the soft top.

It's a trick to get everyone driving new internet connected cars so they can destroy all the older non-Matrix connected ones.
