Looking at buying the new Cooper and asking a question, Im 6'3" so tall and wonder any other guys here similar issue. Are they big enough? and any pics of lads in same predicament.
Cheers in advance Tam

Yep I'm a tall un! I'm about 6'5" and have no problems at all in my R56. I've only briefly tried sitting in the F56 and had no problems in that either. I never considered a MINI before I just happened to try one on the off chance, I had always assumed I'd be too big for it, but they have more space than you think inside. Nobody can sit behind me though, the seat gets pushed all the way back and all the way down but I'm not worried about that!
Being bigger does effect your ability to keep up on runs with all the shorties around you! :lol:

Going to Stirling one would have liked the cooper S but the Standard cooper is in my price bracket. Looks great on reviews going to get a wee test drive

You'll be fine the cabin is deceiving and in the end who cares that no one can sit behind you ;);)

Welcome. I'm still convinced Andrew drives from the back seat :lol: but I've looked there's a driving seat and it's not modified in any way. As has been said, the best way to find out if you're comfortable is to go test drive one I think you'll be surprised ;)

I'm 6ft 3in and never had any problem. I just have colleagues asking me how I get in. In reply I say "well first I open the door..."
