My hip replacement was 11 years ago, and I still get in a car bum first, facing out. Then swivel hips with knees together, to get legs in.

Eglantine19 also has a thread about hip replacement and afterwards.
All the best!

I drove yesterday for the first time since hip replacement in Feb with no problems at all! I had a new hip by default as I fell and broke my own so it's been quite a drama, but now getting better by the day. Good luck Crazygran! sunshine
