Neither my wife nor I have any problem getting our 13-month old son in and out of his car seat in the back. It is actually easier than I expected it would be - tha back seat isn't that deep, so I can fasten him in without having even having to step in the back. A rear-facing car seat would be a totally different story, but I didn't get the 1er until shortly after his first birthday so I never had to worry about that. Also, we have a four-door car as well, so it's not like we're strictly relying on the 1 for family transport (although to be honest, since I've gotten the 1 that's been all we've used when it's the 3 of us).
I've sat in the back behind the driver's seat in my normal driving position (I'm 5'11") and had adequate leg room. It should be plenty for a kid. I think the bigger issue for rear-seat occupants is entry/egress, not so much legroom.
