Our trip to Costco today found us buying lots of exciting things – among them a free standing air conditioner, electric pressure washer, toilet rolls, cat litter and a couple of tins of coffee.
When we got back to the car, everything suddenly got much bigger but I am very pleased to report that everything came home in GBMINI, with both driver & passenger still comfortable and not having to slide either front seat forward.
And to the gentleman that came over to chat about MINIs, saying next year he might replace his Cadillac with a MINI and have a “second childhood”, I say – hurry up and join in the fun!
M&I / GBMINI 
Oh Ya… I can’t tell you how many trips to BJ’s I’ve made and came home with a totally packed MINI… but to this day, my greatest accomplishments are: (Of course, with a driver and passenger, and seperate trips)
75lb Heavy Bag…
A Stand for said Heavy Bag…
Two 3 panel folding screens at about 6′ long. (All the way from the boot door to the dashboard)
and last (and not least by far) a chest at about a 1’6″ wide, 1’6″ tall, and almost 4 feet long.
That last one had me riding on the folded down rear seat while my wife drove home… 🙂
