I'm 6'2.5" and I fit better in my 80 B than most cars. I appreciate the leg
room and my head fits in there too. Although, I have had the first in line
at the light problem. What about a little mirror on the dash? Of course as
long as you aren't blinded by sunlight.
But seriously, everyone knows that every traffic light has a horn that goes
off if you haven't moved withing 10 seconds of the light turning green.

Now that we are in our rainy season here in Pennsylvania, I'm commuting with
the
top up on my '66B roadster. How I wish MG had designed a taller windshield
on
this car. For a 6'4" driver its tough being the first in line at a traffic
light. You really have to scrunch down to see the light change. I even took
the
wooden spacers out from under the seat rails! Typically, British cars have
plenty of headroom, for wearing a derby I guess, but they missed it with the
roadster. I guess its another good reason to drive an 1100.
I've often wondered how many MG drivers on the list were 6' and over; why
I'm
attracted to such small cars is a mystery.
