If you’re quite short, what car do you drive?

I’m looking at getting a little run around car for me as I just can’t drive the Toyota we have as I just can’t see out of it, no matter how much I adjust the seat / use a cushion. I’m only 4ft 11 and just want something small and economical that I can see out of! Any recommendations?

I have a little two-seater Smart car - easy to park and very economical. I'm not that small at 5'6 and looked quite big in it! Was perfect for ferrying my son to his away football games before he left for Uni. Now my other son drives it while he's waiting to buy a car of his own...he's 6' and looks huge in it!

Fiesta, the wing mirrors/blind spots aren't the best but it's quite a good car and very spacious

I'm five one and have always driven big cars.

Seats always go up and forward enough for me, long gone are the days where I needed a cushion or two
