Just saw this string.
Beware of resting anything on the dash as in the first pic.
I carried a lightweight alloy ladder home like that, resting on the passenger seat and dash, just clear of the windscreen, well padded at the front.
I braked slightly as I went over a bump (French roads), the ladder end slid forward ever so slightly, wedged itself into the lower angle of the windscreen, and cracked the screen halfway to the top.
Expensive ladder! |

| Tell me about it. I once trasported a queen size (dismantled) bed frame in my 33 with all doors fully closed. I can name no toher hatch that can do that. |

They're the best at hauling shite John!
I regularly have mine filled up with building materials for the ongoing house renovations. Once I had over 100 bricks and about 4 bags of sand/cement in mine.........was a quick way to lower the car but had a little performance problem  |

| Ha, nice one John. I see you were very careful to protect all the trims from being scratched too. |

Too true - I even took out the front seat once (as it's so easy) to carry a P4 rear axle home once.  |
