The MINI, bigger than you think

Hi all,
Just today, I brought three 6 foot rolls of reedcane fomr home depot in my MINI. I didn't even have to move/fold the front seats! People were amazed that the MINI could carry so much. So it's little on the outside, but big on the inside; the perfect combo!

It's not really a little car. Tall and wide within an inch or two of my Golf [nobodys idea of a small car I think] The MINI is just short, that's all.

.........but I could be wrong.

It was designed on the TARDIS

I've used it to carry a fridge, mind you it was a wine fridge, but it was still in the box. Also had the wife and baby in the car at the time

A big guy at work (in both all directions) that was driving his daughters for a little while, loved it. He made the comment that even as big as I am, I fit in the car and I am comfortable. I even told a couple of other guys about the fact that this guy fits in it...they shocked by this news. I know if he fits and is happy that it was not going to be an issue for me.

Motor on
