Pretty much what the title says... Im looking into picking up a Mini but I'm hesitating because of the amount of room in the back. I'm 6'3" and I'm scared that by the time I recline the front seat all the way, ther'll be no room left in the back. It's really important that 2 adults can fit in the back.

I know Mini's are well known for their interior room but I know everything has its limits...

Thanks guys,

Shawn

PS- I just noticed the mistake in the title and I cant seem to modify it....

It is a tight squeeze, that's for sure ..

I can usually only fit 3 in mine .. Me (6ft 2') and 2 mates .. Nobody usually sits behind me, there's literally no room for legs ..

Sure, it's possible to fit 4 grown ups in a Mini and even do long travels (about 350km one way).. been there done that :P BUT it sure ain't comfy for the people in the back seat when driving longer distances. In each bumb rear fenders hit the tires and after a while legs start to feel numb too... but it's worth it :wub:

I had five in mine once lol two rather large girls in the back and my slim mate sitting in between them or on top of them
another mate in the front and me driving. A total of 66 stone. the suspension had been lowered about an inch and it was fitted with 12s. It was a bit dodgey on the corners at about 5mph hearing the tyres on the rear arches.
