How's this for embarrassing? I bruised my "tailbone" pretty badly playing footy earlier this year and I found the leather seats in my 156, which are pretty firm, put so much direct pressure on the bruised area I couldn't sit still for more than 30 seconds at a time. It was very much as Bazz described. And  dangerous - I found myself driving sitting on an angle. In the end I had to tilt the seatback forward so it was almost vertical, which seemed to take the pressure off, but made me sit leaning forward like some old blind codger. Thankfully, it was only a problem for about two weeks.
