Comfort and Accessibility Notes
Ian’s vintage Mini Cooper, while oozing charm, can be a tad unforgiving for passengers with back problems or larger physiques, so it’s essential to consider your comfort level before climbing aboard.
If you’re on the taller or heavier side, you might want to rethink this tour – or at least be prepared for a cozy (read: cramped) ride.
Back problems? Stay away: Ian’s Mini Cooper isn’t exactly designed for comfort, so if you’ve got back issues, this tour mightn’t be the best fit.
Size matters: If you’re over 6ft tall or 16st, you might find the ride a bit… squishy.
Wheelchair accessibility: While wheelchairs can be accommodated, only two people can travel, so plan accordingly.
