Here are pictures taken 06/09/07 in Dundee of the world record attempt to cram 11 people inside a New Mini.
Does anyone know if this is a record?

Actually I don't know...but I heard about thirty people getting seriously hurt on Union Street in Aberdeen the other day. It happened when their taxi hit a wall.

"21 students from a Kuala Lampur college stuffed themselves into a 1999 lime green MINI Cooper in a total of 4 minutes. They also waited the 20 seconds that it would take for them to make it into the Guiness Book of World Records. They also claimed that they met the Guiness Book of World Records requirements that said those invovled must be over 4′11″. The previous record was set by 18 women in 2000".

cheers.............

it turns out it was a stunt to `liftshare` and was an atempt to draw attention to sharing your car to work, to cut down on town congestion.

thanks anyway
