The roll hoops feel to be right behind my head, worse than my Boxster where I can actually hit my head on the plastic cover with some regularity. The whole relationship to me, the car, the controls feels wrong in the ND. I am not saying it's a bad car in anyway, it just shows that fitting in a space is an irrationally personal thing at times. I feel like this in an ND.
The little tykes car made all this worth it.

Maybe I should ask the significant other to try...

Those aren't cut-up drums. Drums aren't fully corrugated, only in one or two bands, and they are MUCH smaller in diameter.
What those look like to me are the metal half-bin things you put around ground-level/under-ground-level windows so dirt doesn't fill in.
