I have had the S2000 for about 4 months, probably the worst time as the weather has been shite
Dont know if it has been brought up before but what techniques do people have for
getting in and out of the car?

I used to open the door, get in and then when at my destination, open the door and get out.

Seemed to work quite well for me.

 

Similar to my technique that, just wondering if anyone has truly mastered the art??

 

I find a foot placed just past the raised floor beam then dropping one's derriere into the seat at the lowest point on the side bolster, works nicely for seat preservation and ease of entry

 

Agreed. I use the open door, get in, close door principal and then reverse this pricipal for getting out. Find the S very easy.

Want difficult? Try an Elise or similar. Like climbing into a bloody washing machine!

 

Or get bucket seats for your S.

 

Head first, hand on transmision tunnel.

Elise I had previously, arse first!!

 

I get in and out with the aim of not crushing the seat bolsters. Ive seen some seats in real nasty condition, which is a result of leaning on them when getting out. Tend to use the steering wheel for a bit of support.

I didn't find getting in the car a big problem, just getting my arse to touch the base of the seat whilst wedged between the sides of the seat

 

This is what I do too, but I need to add that due to my short legs, I need to push the seat back before attempting to get out or I hit my hip on the steering column. Done it a few times. Ouch!.

This is not too much inconvenience for a great driving position though.
