Does someone know if the rear seats fold away leaving a completely flat cargo space when taking the rear seat recline option?
I've heard that only the backrests fold and not the entire seat when taking this option.
If this is the case, I would not take this option as I need a completely flat loadspace when required.
The LR brochure just mentions reduced cargo space with the rear seat recline.

Going by this the rear recline only moves the backrest as far as i know .......

Thanks for your response Mick.
In the video you see how the seat moves electrically but I'm more concerned on how the seat folds away when you need more cargo space.
I think it is the backrest which folds down and you load onto that instead of the seat folding away completely when you don't have the rear recline option.

Mick, no - just have to get some heavy tinting on the front windows so the real anoraks cannot see inside! 2018 Mini Countryman Cooper S E All4 PHEV in Melting Silver - it’s whisper quiet in EV and polluter modes
