6'10" and doing my part to bring the average back up. When the Mini first came out (literally the first weekend they were at the dealership) my friend and I went to take a test drive. He was 6'8". We had people stopping us to take pictures. It was really pretty funny.

I should get to count twice for the average as I have the Clubbie and a classic

 

I'm towering at a whopping 5'5"!

 

I am 5'4" and my wife is 4' something. We get the comment "That car fits you 2 so well".... and we have a Clubman.
Wife drives with the seat all the way forward.
With the seat forward it is hard for us to reach back to grab the seatbelt. What works for me is to reach back with my left arm pointing downward.

 

4'7 :D

 

Based on the responses, I'm an average MINI owner ... 6'1". Both my dad (6'5") and a friend of mine (6'7") laughed at me when I told them they'd fit perfectly in my MINI. The laughing stopped when each of them got in (not at the same time) and had plenty of head and leg room.
The only "clown car" comment I received was the day I drove two of my friends to lunch. The 6' 230lb guy sat in front and the 6'3" 270lb guy sprawled across the back. When we arrived at the restaurant, the other car load of guys started chanting, "Clown car, Clown car".

 

I'm only 5'10 but my coworker says I look like a clown getting out of my car.

 

6'5" Here!! I get tired of answering the question...how do you fit in that thing?

 

I'm 5'8" (32inseam)...Trust Me it Matters!! Hubby 5'9" (30inseam)...S@@!!

 

WOW, cant believe all the super tall people driving MINIs!
I'm 5' 4"...so I guess I'm bringing down the curve a bit too...

 

5'2'' here and my MINI is a dream come true.

 

6' here. I haven't read the entire thread but is anyone doing the math yet so we can get an average?

 

I'm 5'6". Love the clown car comment.

 

6'2" and have a black convertible and I feel fine in the car. My head falls perfectly on the head rest. Of course my back seat is useless but that is the norm for the convertibles I believe. People who haven't seen the car always ask, "how do fit in it"? But of course us owners know how roomy the car is. I love how I sit low to ground and then there are the high door panels. Really feels like an expensive go cart. What's also weird is the car doesnt' feel small. I have to keep reminding myself that the car basically ends at the back seats. Love my car but my new obsession is a panamera just had to say it because I want one so bad.

 

I am 5 feet tall and the mini looks bigger than me...lol

 

Jerry Fikar made me laugh!!!! great thread.

 

6' -1" Plenty of room....

 

5'11" with combat boots!

 

5'11" here, and it feels way roomier than my old 2001 Civic coupe. I remember seeing a pic of Dirk Nowitzki once standing next to one, but it'd be interesting to see him actually sitting inside one.

 

I'm 5'-11" and the MINI is just right for me, amazed at the high number of owners at over 6 feet, bet the verical overachiever average here is probably more than for most big cars.

 

I'm 5'10"

 

Great topic. Great pic Sillouette

 

I'm 5'8" and my wife is 5'3". MINI fits us perfectly

and just in case you're wondering:

I'm 6'2" and i gave my buddy a ride home today. He is 6'8"! He has a little trouble getting out, but once inside he fits. Whether he's comfy or not is a mystery

 

Im 6-1 to 6-2 160. I do have long legs and id like the steering wheel a tad closer for how far i want to comfortably move the seat back. i just have it at a happy medium. Seat a tad too close/ wheel a tad to far lol

 

6'1" here....It was fun going to the MINI dealer and telling them "I'm buying a MINI because i need more room"....They look at me like im crazy.
