> I hear you but I want a four seater for the kids.

Technically the 124 is a two-seater; the rear seat having been designated a
"parcel shelf" in the U.S. for legal reasons. Rear leg room is practicallty
nonexistent, even for kids, once you put the front seat back far enough to
be able to drive. I bought my first 124 Spider for the very same reason
(originally wanted an MG or Triumph, but no room for the kid), and installed
a rear seat belt in it for my daughter, then 4. We loved it and I'd do it
again!  But by the time she was 7 she was too big to fit in the back, even
with her legs extended between the front seats toward the shifter.
