	Reasons for overhang seats
		The week point in the legitimation of overhang seats is Reason 2: few or missing votes cause additional seats.
		In the 1998 election four overhang seats were caused by an unproportional distribution of constituencies (WP 96/98).
		On the other hand, overhang seats are more unlikely in a heterogenous set of constituencies, because the conditions to win a constituency change from constituency to constituency.

		Having a leader with a safe constituency seat is a tremendous asset to a minor party in such a system as it ensures survival.

		I suspect this is because the well for the fold-into-the-floor third seat requires a longish rear overhang (the seat must stow behind the wheels).
		With the third seat up, the cargo space is deep, because the well for the third seat extends much lower than the rest of the floor, but there's not a lot of space lengthways.

		The seat overhang in the front and the distance fo the pipe in the floor from the back wall will be a big factor in whether the toilet will fit.
		The Kohler round front Wellworth, for example, is 26 3/4" from the back of the tank to the front of the bowl, which actually projects a bit further than the seat will, but that adds another 1" if the pipe is exactly at 12" from the wall.
