What year/model F-Type? Which seat option?

 

 

 

Are you sure it has "sports" seats and not "performance" seats?
Sports seats are the basic seats on a 2014 F-Type and to the best of my knowledge all 2014 F-Type Rs came with the "performance" seats.

 

I have a love hate relationship with my performance seats that change every year around my birthday. I love looks and when I'm jetting around in dynamic. Not so much when in traffic. Also after I fracture hip less tham 6 months after buying car I had to rework my settings. I wanted brouge interior so really no choice.

 

 

Also, make sure the front of the seat bottom is not tilted too high. Some feel they need support at the back of their knees, but too much pressure to the back side of your legs, just above the knees, can cut off circulation flowing back to your heart.

 

 

I'd also play with the location (up/down) on the lumbar support and not just the firmness - you may just need that support in a different spot. My husband hasn't been in my car much (in fact, the only time he's driven has been home from a restaurant because I had a couple of drinks with dinner) and he preferred the lumbar support a bit higher than I do. I'd also agree with what IronMike said and make sure the front isn't tilted too far up. As I've discovered a lot over the past couple of years - issues or pains in some areas are caused by something elsewhere. Also, don't forget to play with the firmness settings on the sides - I like to feel hugged by my seat, but others don't.

 

awwwww... isn't that sweet!

 

It's my car's way of telling me she loves me!

Hey, I have my moments when I'm not being a sarcastic bitch. Not many, but I do have them!

 

 

The other missing part of the equation is your body size. I spent 9-day driving 8+ hr days in the F-Type and didn't have any comfort problems with the seats. The only thing I don't like is that the seat has no perforation or seat cooling so its easy to get a sweaty back.
