Bought my big cooking grill from wal-mart and slid it in the back, then me (6'7" 300lb) and my daughter (5' 100lb) climbed in the front.

Pic is at home.

People were slowing down going by to see if I was going to get it in there.

Just today, I got this antique trunk, plus my work backpack, my MINI's accessory bag, my leather tote w/ my reusable bags, big gym bag, a bow, and ME! This happens to be the only pic for proof though. I've also managed to squeeze in three footlockers (one truck-bed-box size, two smaller ones) plus a huge full military duffle bag -- my redeployment junk! I can P*A*C*K if I do say so myself!!!

i dont have any pics (i know the point is) but i moved my sister out of her college dorm room with my car..when i pulled up..everyone was laughing at me..until i fit everything in (plus us two girlies) into my car while some people had a hard time fitting half the stuff into their explorers..i guess you just really need to know how to pack!

I wish I would have gotten a pic but I didn't. Last summer we packed over 400 pounds of fireworks in my MINI. It was kinda scary. I had them in the boot, the backseat, and the front seat. It was a walking explosive. I kept praying the whole ride home I didn't get into an accident.

This really isn't that impressive because the trunk was basically empty both times, but I've fit six people into the MINI on two different occasions. The first time, I ran into my [inebriated] friend after the bars closed (I was the DD for our group). When he asked for a ride for him and his lady friend, I looked at my three friends and said, well if you guys can fit, I'll drive. Everyone got home safe (two guys and four girls). The other time, my friend's Jeep Grand Cherokee broke down in the parking lot at a concert. She had it towed, and I drove her and four other girls home - a 45 min ride - with no complaints.

I have a picture I will upload later but heres the list. 2 medium sized tool boxes, 2 medium sized pieces of luggage, 2 5 gallon drums of race fuel, helmet, suit and all the other safety stuff. Large cooler full of wd40, oil and other random stuff, 2 camping chairs, 1 kart axle and a set of 4 kart tires and wheels. I was very very close to bottomed out in the back. Gotta go find that picture.

I will go to crazy extremes to avoid driving a bigger car.
