R55 interior load dimensions

[JurassicF]

Looking at buying a 59 or 60 plate R55 Cooper Clubman, low mileage and well specced. But due to current restrictions it would be a click and deliver with 14 day return.
I am trying to find the length of the rear load area with the rear seats folded and front at a reasonable distance for a 6' driver.

Can anyone on here help as all searches just give cubic space not actual dimensions.

Looking at the Clubman as a cheap option to leave parked outside, a dog and golf club carrier and general dogsbody so I can leave my new Macan dog and mud free.

How much of a risk is the timing chain issue? Often you only hear the bad stories on forums

Thanks Steve.

Thanks Mike, reading up, I thought the engine base was the same, so why the S and not the Cooper. I have seen a couple of Coopers with 60k on saying timing chains have been replaced?

Sounding really positive thanks.

Fantastic, thank you both for all your help.
