Considering an original mini . I am 6 foot, 235 lb. will I fit in the thing?
 
Yeah, you will fit. I am only 200 lbs, and I fit in my Elf just fine. There is a gentleman in Canada that is 6'5" that drives a mini. You have a ways to go before you catch him. But do try one first.

im 6' and 12 stone and fit in the Mini no probs. you will find that your knees will touch the steering wheel a bit but it just adds to the fun!
 
I am 6'1 and around 175 and am comfortable in my Mini. One thing I have seen are brackets that allow the seats to be set back an extra 2-3 inches. This seems to be a popular change to allow for more leg room. I plan on adding them and am curious about how this is done. Any knowledge about these brackets? Anyone using them? How do you install them?
 
I am 6'-4" and 320 pounds, and everything just fits perfectly. I have the seat rail extenders installed to give that extra room needed. The rail extenders are easy to install. Bolt right onto the seat and rail.

My brother back in Holland is 1" taller and he has no problems either.
 
Thanks guys.
