Yes.

But not owning covers or cases, I did scuff up the panel a bit.

Be careful!

completely agreed....

Drummer here; yeah a five piecer should fit easily with the rear seats down. I always used blankets around my drums/harware when I carried my double bass kit in my old VW. All you can do is try it out. :-)

I can get my three dununs, the stand, 2 or 3 jembes, and a couple of small equipment bags into my Mini with the rear seats folded down.

Yes. I can fit my DW cocktail kit or my Roland electronic kit (both 4-piece) without any issues with the rear seat folded down.

Nice pic... I'm sure I could fit my Yamaha DT Xpress II kit in my MINI. Haven't tried to move that yet though.
