I once saw a man lift a Mini by its back end, and there were some schoolkids sitting on the rear seat. I'm not sure how many. I was busy at the time. But now I'm wondering how many there could have been and what weight he might have lifted.
He was a normal-looking man, with the build of someone like the actor who plays Sharpe - not some Schwarzeneggar type with muscles growing out of his eyelids - and the Mini was an ordinary one, not a Mini Cooper. The kids were around thirteen and small-looking, AFAICR.
By the way, how much heavier would the front end of a Mini be than the back end if there's no one sitting in the car?
