Do you think Clubman rear sit can manage with all of them? I have heard the rear central belt is just for people under 50 Kilograms, can anyone confirm this ?

I'd really like to join the mini family but I wonder if it´s suitable....

Yes apparently there's a weight restriction on the middle seat, either 40 or 50kg, I can't remember which.

Take the family and try a 5 seat one on a test drive and see what you think

It's snug let's say

I sat in the back with my two boys, who are 10 and 12 and it can be done reasonably comfortably but I wouldn't like to travel too far
