All four fit nicely with extra room if you put the two backseats down. If you can't put both down, put at least one down. (it's a "duh" comment, but: cover the back of the seats!)

what he said and, no, they won't fit in the boot with the seats up (only 1 will, standing up).

i had to put a 16 inch pizza in the trunk... had to put the seats down so the box would stay level so the grease doesnt slide to one side and drip into the car...
