Mine is 1.94 cm. I wonder your heights. Who is the tallest MCS driver??

 

[mtuk]

5ft 10 & 12 stone.............

Old fashioned way of describing it . I see in a recent GO MINI mag there's some american basketball player who owns a Cooper. I think he's around 11ft 6 inches in height, approx.

 

[MINIAC]

Actually Dirk Nowitzki is 2.13m (almost 7ft) ...

 

[mtuk]

I was only 3 feet off

You could always see who the tallest female MCS driver is....would be an interesting thing to find out....welll for me anyway!

 

[speedynz]

I noticed that Dirk had the sunroof open!

 

[stryder]

I think the tallest owner that I know (through MINI2) of is 6 feet 7 inches, or 2 meters. He visits occasionally, and his username is 6f7.

I think there's a few other members around the same height.

Dirk would win, but I think he just tested out the car, and doesn't actually own it.

And if you were there just after that photo was taken, you would hear him say "My back, dear God my back! It hurts, it hurts!!!"

I'm just a touch under 6ft7 and fit in real easy lots of head room, seat is lowered lots of course. Only downside is there is no way anyone is sitting behind me!

 

[MINI Poser]

I'm just a smidge over 6ft1 and I can't get any one in the back! I'm really surprised there is enough room for someone over 6ft 5 maximum!

Kath (the wife) has her own cooper, and shes 6 ft; Does she win?

I'm only 5' 8" ( all the same height lying down )

DUDE!! Seriously?! I knew your wife was tall when we were standing and talking at the petrol station, but...woah!

Now I know there are women out there in the world who aren't all 5ft 5, then there is hope....

Off topic again. And thats the end for me!

 

[kapps]

I'm 6'4". Lots of head and leg room but I just wish the shifter was a little closer. I'd prefer to keep the seat a little farther back but I wouldn't be able to get 5th gear.

 

[CooperSAZ]

6'3" tall! I will let you guys know how much room I have in the next week or so!

 

[justbob]

6'2", eyes of blue.

That's 190 centimeters, I think.

My MCS has no sunroof, while my wife's MCS does--I definitely feel a bit more comfortable in mine--seems like there's a couple of inches more headroom.

Also, we get us in the front, and two ten year olds in the back--I move my seat forward a bit, but I tilt the steering wheel up, and hey, presto--off we go!

This may be taking the thread horizontally rather than vertically but I have two comments.
My daughter has a MINI Cooper with the sunroof and I have ordered a MCS Convertible. In test driving the convertible. I find no problem in her hardtop but if you want headroom you have got to try the convertible - HA HA yes I no it has unlimited headroom with the top down but with the top UP I had a HUGE amount of space above me - must have been at leats three inckes more than in the hardtop with the sunroof.
My second point is this, during the test drive in the convertible, the salesman (5 foot 11) was in the passenger seat, my son (5 foot 10) was behind him, and my son's girlfriend (5 foot 6) was behind me.
I am only 6 foot but I am 378 pounds (27 stone for those of you in the U.K. and 172 kg for those of you "sur le continent") and I find no space problems driving the MINI or even travelling in the rear seats so long as the person in front isn't more than 5' 11".

I am 6 foot 2 and bring 3 people to work with me one of them is the same hight as me I have to let him get in then lift the seat and move it back till it touches his ankles but we all fit in Snug.

Other dimensions

So who is the shortest owner ?
And who is the fatest ?
