    After getting the New Mini Recaros fitted into Wee Dougie, i thought i'd see about giving me a wee bit more room to allow the seats to go back further:-

    So there is about the same leg room in the rear as a new mini then.

    Yep, for those who have spotted it, the rear bins have been reduced in length and the seat belt anchor points have been retained, albeit they are further back too :)
    Well chuffed

    I did not think you would need seat belts, I could understand it if it was a road car.

    Had an argument with another Classic Mini owner last night - I said that from your photos it looked like the bins were shorter, he said they weren't.

    I WAS RIGHT!!! <does Monica dance>
