Modern vw beetle convertible rear seats

Hi maybe some of you have or had one but I'm wondering how much leg room the rear seats have with a normal front seat passenger. It seems every reviewer is some 6ft something giant that then complains there's no room! but I'm 5ft 5 and so is the wife... Can kids get in the back for us? Cheers

Depends how old / height of your children there isn’t a lot of legroom for passengers in the back the only real way of knowing is trying a car and see

Yeah their quite young 6 & 7, still in their boosters

Might be the best plan, to take them along and see if they fit... cheers

Not beetle related but we found legroom improved a bit when they got rid of the booster seats, they are sitting further back in the seat and their legs go down rather straight out. you probably have a few more years with the boosters to go though

Yeah cheers no booster should improve things since their feet are lower. Looking at getting one for the wife, will just have to find a dealer with one locally to try out.
