Here they were 11 and 8 - can't remember exactly when they grew too much to travel in the back - probably the constant complaints about neck pain and walking with a permanent shuffle got to me in the end...

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

7 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

It’s probably not likely I’ll get one any way, but need to know whether to stop dreaming on Autotrader… but what are the rear seats like? 4 yr old and 6 yr old. Front seats set for a 6ft and 5ft 6 wife. Something viable for summer trips out for the day in a convertible? 996, 997, 991, all similar sizes, or later cars bigger/better? A case of try it and see? At what point will it not work with kids? I expect they’ll out/grow it fairly quickly but hopefully by the time they do it could be a 3rd car.

POST 2Original post

My two were 6 and 3 when I got my 996.2. My lad was starting to much prefer the front seat when it went 5 years later… There is a bit more room in a 991. Watch the cabs, the rear seat backrests are very vertical and there is a little less space than in a coupe. I say go for it if you can, will put a smile in everyone’s face.

POST 3Original post

Had a 997 from when my daughter was 5-10.. no problem Then it started to get a bit tight so changed to a 991 and there is a lot more room (comparatively of course.. it’s only an extra few inches but makes all the difference) She is 13 now and still fits - still give her and her 2 mates a lift to school sometimes and they love it

POST 4Original post

6’4” 17 stone (but not fat if you know what I mean). Couldn’t fit in a 997, 996 steering wheel in my lap. My 991 is perfect. 3.5 year old in Porsche seat behind passenger seat and loves it.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

This is positive be enough for me to go spend some time taking a look then! I’m hankering most after a 996T.

POST 6Original post

Here they were 11 and 8 - can't remember exactly when they grew too much to travel in the back - probably the constant complaints about neck pain and walking with a permanent shuffle got to me in the end... They loved it - and you'll have more room in the 996.

POST 7Original post

Mr Whippy said: This is positive be enough for me to go spend some time taking a look then! I’m hankering most after a 996T. 996T as my daily, 7 and 10 year old kids in the back. My son is getting tall enough to start saying he’s a bit smalll for it when my wife is also in car and he has to go in back, but he’s got another year left in there I reckon before it’s too small Had kids in the back of this and my previous 996 for 7 years now
