nice thinking!!

I know there 2 seaters but they have these sort of, I think they call them emergency seats in the back! You can't move but I wasn't sat in the so called back, I had the front row seat!!

I didn't know there was an 'emergency' seat. Were you sitting on the engine?

Seriously though am I missing something? The link actually shows a Stradale? On a regular one the seats will be thicker not buckets. Where did this young lady sit?

Dependant on the spec but with the leather bucketseats you can move them forward enough to give enough room to fit in two kids of say around 6-8 y/o(boys will be boys!) there is a ledge to park your bum on, not legally but it can be done!

I would not reccommend driving around and picking up two young boys to try this out without permission of their parents first

imagine the thinnner leather clad racing seats moved forwards a few inches.

oh, this is of course hypothetically

Quite, given the opportunity for a ride in a car like thios it is suprising how many you can fit in

Sadly some people on SN just see things as B+W "it's a two seater so only two people"

The seats do move forward quite a bit and that's where the 'golf clubs' go according to Ferrari.
I do reckon someone could fit behind there but it would not be pleasant...
Never heard of it called an 'emergency seat' before though lol

I've been in one of these too driven at Bedford Autodrome and it was so much fun, the noise, the acceleration and the handling were to die for. It was just so twitchy (as was my ****!) and the guy spun it at one point.

Thank you!! It can be done, i'm sure she wasn't comfortable but it was worth crippling herself for the ride!! I spoke to her today and she can hardy move because of the back ache!!
The noise from the engine was unreal though, very worth my mate having back ache all day!!

I think those are just sports seats.

IIRC the Challenge Stradale doesn't/didn't come with a manual box.
