Only Mini One's I believe as Cooper's and S's are supplied with runflats

does this sit flat on the boot floor..? when you fold the seat backs forward are there any problems..? do you know if it's able to be retro-fitted..?

It sits on a tray underneath with a nut in the boot floor to release it so no intrusion at all into the boot. Retrofit? Not sure

well that's where the exhaust is on a coopers so that's probably why i haven't heard about it before. a shame cos if i went to std tyres i'd rather have a spacesaver than foam...

Spare wheels (space saver) is factory option, it cannot be retrofitted. The boot floor is different between MINIs with and without Spacesaver option. I've found this out first time someone asked for one when their car didn't have one.
