Anyone who purchased drive a very small car? I drive a 4-door mini - wondering if this is a good choice for a compact car?

Forward facing, maybe. Rear facing, wouldn't advise (but you could probably make it work by moving the front passenger seat all the way up). They're very large.

We have a Mercedes R350, more of a cross over. We opted to not get the center seat but a console instead. There is ample room for a third to fit with room to spare. Our sister cared for our kids for several days while we were away. She has a Mini-Coop, certainly a compact car. Three would fit across her back seat. They are only slightly wider than those cheap booster you can pick-up anywhere. We have 2 of these as well for back-ups. In the Mini Coop with 3 across, I don't think you would be able to use all of the built-in cup holders but you might be able to use one cup holder on each seat if positioned correctly. Hope this helps as they are comfortable and safe seats. The ability to fold them flat when removed makes them great to change between vehicles and for travel.

Personally, my mini sounds better than I thought it would. Although I had a sound link, I would go with the mini for overall sound.

Yes. It fits in a VW Jetta & Passat and KIA Spectra. However, I don't know if it will not fit in a smaller compact.

If your vehicle requires a double-din unit you should not have a problem purchasing this product. There are mounting brackets and there is an 'after market' fit margin. Pull your stereo out just enough to measure the opening and compare that to the dimensions. You can also get an idea of how deep your component box is. I hope this was some help. Although I was positive this unit would fit, I did actually compare the dimensions before I placed my order. If it works out you purchase this unit I think you will be impressed with the performance for the price. I was.

Totally depends on the Sedan. I got it into the back of a Nissan Altima, but anything even a tad smaller would have been a no go.

I have carried them on a 4 door Subaru and it was great. A van might be better with a mini van because u can spread the pads apart more. Depends how the doors close.

I don't have the cover for a compact because my car is larger, but I would assume it is the same for all sizes. On my car, Impala, the cover covers the car but leaves about 4-5 inches of the wheels uncovered. The rest fits over nicely, but it is certainly not easy to roll back up into the bag it comes in. I usually just roll it back, fold it over a few times and put it in the trunk.It has worked really well, but the lock that comes with it, is very cheap. I have that on one side, and I bought a Master padlock for the other end of the cord and that has kept it secure. The only other thing is, and you are not supposed to put it away when wet, but after taking it off, what are you going to do? It went in the trunk, and when I pulled it out the next day,it was somewhat frozen together. Most came apart, but there is one small part of a layer that pulled off when I pulled it apart. More information than you asked but hope it helps, and I would still recommend the use of the cover in spite of what I have said.

Agree with other two answers. I have mine on a Mini, but you have to buy the one that is for the Mini.

I have mine in my mini... its a bit big, but I just fold the top over and it looks great, and stays in place. Could add to the hassle if your in a hurry, but it works for me.

I have it on the Mini Cooper Countryman and it is just slightly bigger. but i just fold the bottom and it looks from the outside that its perfects! if you want to look at it. here's a few of my pictures http://instagram.com/p/L8g-_sJ9pZ/ http://instagram.com/p/LtgBBiJ9on/

Yes I think it will be to small because it barely fits my corolla which is a smaller vehicle.

It's a pain to get situated properly, especially if you have to accommodate a shoulder strap. It fits fine backwards in my 4-door Altima, though it does press against the front seats if they are slid or leaned back much. A small car would be a tight fit.

My husband works for Mini and comes home every few months with a different demo: Countryman, Cooper - and the answer is most definitely YES! He's currently driving the Cooper S hardtop and we have two kids in the backseat; one in the Diono radian and one in a booster (However....there would STILL be room for two of these Radian carseats in the backseat).This is one of the best car seats I've seen among the many seats I've seen. We've traveled with it (fits on plane seats) easy to carry...and same safety rating as Britax. Highly recommend.

I think it's to small size but check what size wheel bearings you have on your car before you buy it.

It Is Quite Smaller Than I Had Anticipated. Definitely Go With A Larger Size, Not A Compact, I Also Prefer Models That Oscillate. :) :) :)

It fits very well. Good choice in automobile too, by the way. How do you like it?
