Budget Rental Vans

Hey guy's I went down to Budget just now and had a look at one of the vans they have.
Its really interesting because the layout of it is very similar to how we will be arranging our motor, front seats and the space left for our passengers.

In the vans, the people in front sit intop of the motor, and you get access to it from under the seats (lift them up) and there is actualy room for 3 people in the front. The middle seat being able to turn into a cup holder, table, and storeage compartment all in one.

sounds about right, the wheel base seems to be similar length to the van. Everything just looks bigger in landcruisers because of styling, height and bigger tyres.

I sat in the back of the Budget Van, to get a good sense of how much room each person needs, and if we use those general measurements, along with the Landcruisers dimensions we should be good.

Do you think we need to create a general outline in terms of measurements so we can scale it in CAD?? because if thats the case we should look at how much room to leave for seats (leg room seemed fine in the van)
