Two questions:

1: how much beer did you consume before doing that.

2: Is the girl with the brownish red hair in the brownish shirt single she is pretty hot.

Nice job of packing them in, especially as you were using regular sized people. I bet with smaller people that record could be broken. . . . ..

who's next to try?

Congrats! That must have been a lot of fun!

From the title of the thread at first I thought-
Well how many and still be able to drive it? I say 9 or 10. One person in the boot of course. Six in the rear seat doubled up and two in the front seat doubled up. Maybe 11. Do they have to be entirely inside the car?
If you put all twelve in- doesn't that exceed the load limit on the tires?
Yes- more room if you use smaller people and if you remove the rear seats
Is that cheating? :evil:

MINI Abuse! I'm sending in the MPA (MINI Protection Agency) to take that MINI into protective custody.

Well done.
I've had 5 in my MCS. But I wasn't going for a record or anything. Just transporting a few of us around.
Back in the day(awhile ago) a buncha friends came up with this idea for a Chevette. We got 13 average sized people in there. Took a bit of re-doing the positions of everyone, but we did it. Brings me back.
Good show.
Cheers,

the rear view mirror twists off easily and was put back on after the Mini Cram. Next time we will try to see how many people can fit in and able to drive the car. I chalange anyone to beat my number!

I bet you could get a couple more people in if you removed the passenger and rear seats first!

Half the reason I have a Mini is to carry less people. I was sick of being the one who always drove when the "guys" went out. Now since most of 'em are SUV drivers, they won't ride in the Mini 'cos it's too small. Suits me fine, bloody Neanderthols...

Which begs the question: WWJCHI - What Would Jesus Cram Himself Into?
