How bigs your boot?
southpaw - 23/2/06 at 06:57 PM

I wasn't sure whether to put thios in external or internal, but I figured as its an enclosed area I'd put it in here

Anyway, people keep telling me locosts aren't practical and that I won't be able to put anything in them. I figured I'd just shove my bag in the passenger seat, but how big are the boots on these cars? Anyone got any pictures to give me an idea of scale/size?

Thanks

Size 10's or 44 as listed these days!!

They're actually not bad, but for real carrying capacity, try this!

How about 2 crash hats, 4 coke cans and a jack.

Great, love the look of you dashboard mate, looks stunnging with that blue leather!

So they can be reasonably practical then, all I really need is to chuck a rucksack in the back

That's an impressive load!!

Is that an Opel Manta GTE Exclusive rear seat I see in there??


Marcus - 24/2/06 at 09:28 AM

Rear seat - well spotted!!
The bases are from the same car.
Car 2 has GT/E Recaro bases cut down and re welded, and Cavalier rear seat backs - same material.
Guess what cars I had sat on my drive, not going anywhere!
Makes you wonger why I didn't go for Manta donor, but thought it a bit big!
