ARGHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Seat Belts

[Scottie]

How annoying is the seat belt in the new R56.

Who in gods name every thought that design feature was acceptable I'll never know.

Open door - sit in car - close door - reach to get seat belt - open door - pull seat belt through - close door.:(:(:(

I always forget to grab the seat belt before I close the door first time round.:I:I

With mine, as long as you set the height of the seat belt buckle up near the top it is fine.

You can also buy a holder which clips onto the headrest post.

I agree though, it is far from perfect. Price you pay for big, comfy seats

Somewhere on the seatbelt there is a little plastic clamp that can slide up and down but prevents the buckle dropping down too far.
