I wonder if you have a faulty seat, I find my drivers seat to be very comfy even on long drives, seams very strange that you have been driving a Micra ( Much less driver room ) and you had no problems.davey256 wrote: ↑Tue Feb 05, 2019 7:33 pmHi Terry. I'm pretty sure it's not that as I know sciatica and it plays on other aspects. I'm fine when I get out the car and I've been fine with other cars. I bought this car mid-December and I had a Micra before that for like 3yrs driving. Never had an issue in that, apart from general fatigue with long drives. This aching/pain starts witin 10 minutes no matter the seat position. The cushion could be an idea though as it's definitely cheaper than selling the car and looking around for a new one. Thank you for the tipTerry64 wrote: ↑Tue Feb 05, 2019 12:24 pm Have you considered the fact it may not be the car or your seating position but in fact it may be you have a problem ( Injury ) you are not aware of, the fact you say you have pain down one leg could point to the sciatic nerve.
Pain occurs when there's pressure on, or damage to, the sciatic nerve
You could try investing in one of these Streetwize Seat Support Wedge, they take the strain off sitting on your coccyx ( Tail Bone ) but also will give you more height on your seat ( More room for the legs ) without moving the seat to far back that you need to stretch the arms.
I use one as I drive for a living so sat on my but for long journeys and this cushion has proved to be worth every penny, I suffer from back problems and this helps

Why not take a visit to a Nissan dealer and take a Qashqai for a test drive see if your seat feels different.
