Not so hard, actually. And, no, you don't have to resort to using the roof (eek, the paint!) or buying a midget tree.

Husband and I brought home a 7-foot beauty last night, trussed up like a Thanksgiving turkey (this helps a lot).

(Aside from the tree, I'm continually being amazed at how much I can fit in the back of Reg, with or without the back seats down.)





And from the front seats:

 

Aaaahh! Tree Sap on English Leather! I guess I'm fortunate in that I have the OEM roof rack so I just put our tree on top with a blanket drapped between the cross bars that prevented any damage to the roof. I then had three open seats for my dearest three friends to come along!

 

The fresh smell of evergreen in your MINI.

 

^The ultimate air freshener.

We avoid all this with an artificial tree.

 

Buy a small tree.......

 

Get a Clubman!
