We had a topic of discussion here a while ago about a removeable bracket that apparently blocks the seat from going back all the way (most likely in order to allow extra legroom for rear-seat passengers). You might want to dig in the archives, or someone can tell you where it is. You'll probably see if if you look at the seat rail from the back. Not sure how you take it out as mine had already been done. On another note, like you I felt the driving position to be a little uncomfortable until I got used to it. The seats in my Jetta III used to go back so far I couldn't reach the pedals. I got used to having a "laid-back" driving position. Once I got used to the "chair-like" upright driving of the Type III, everything was fine, so it's possible that you'll get used to the different positioning.
