Heel on the floor mat, moving from accelerator to brake my toes hit the plastic cover above the footwell.

I don't have big feet. Size 8.5 UK. Arguably small.
I can avoid hitting my toes, but I have to completely life my feet up off the floor and move them over.

Does anybody else find that the drivers footwell in a P38 is too small and cramped? I find it strange that the designers achieved this on a large car.

Raising the seat height altered the angle of leg and foot which sorted the problem for me.

6’6”, size 13 feet with very long legs. I’ve got no issue fitting in and using the pedals.

Arguably the one car that I can actually fit in..

6'1 and size 11.
Yes occasionally I tap the panel with my toes.
But that is because it doesn't get driven much and I have to readjust. When driving the P38 as a daily never had the problem.
Your body adjusts to minor problems better than you relies

Also OMG some of you lot wear Clown size.
