In addition; 2 sports bags, 1 with kids clothes, 1 with our clothes, bag with steriliser, bottles formula etc. 2 toilet bags, Quinni pushchair, Blow up bed & compressor for 3 year old, laptop & a fair few presents for the various members of her family, lots of thick coats, handbag.
Yes we all fitted in & travelled several hundred miles with 1 problem - I got stuck in the snow/ice at the inlaws & ended up reversing out of their estate
Did you use a roof box a something ??? As we have just had a little boy and when we go away its a real struggle to get all our gear into the gfs mini. Ive already sold my cooper-s and id really like another but part of me also wants a civic type-r just for the space I dont suppose you took any pics of your mini all packed up??
