Open and Shut Case...

[POG]

I was wondering if any of you have the Z3 luggage... I the seen the 3 piece sets, which make the most of the boot space...

Are they worth the money?

 

[Macca]

For me they are too expensive. Do what I did, measure the boot (exactly) and take a tape measure to the "suitcase seller shop" and buy 1/2/3 that is exactly the same size. It might take a few visits but it's worth it. It cost me less than £40.

Great idea ............off to find the tape measure.

The basic idea is to buy textile (soft fabric) bags which adapt better one to the other, comparing to the rigid suitcases!
It's unbelievable how many things you can range in the boot of the car!
This is what we took for one month road trip and everything went in the boot.

There is also the other trick of getting a suit hanging bag, fill it up with clothes on the hangers and then place behind either the drivers or passengers seats. Means Mr Bond can take his dinner jacket on holiday with him

That's a good idea, never thought of that.

I have these and although they are a bit pricey I think they are worth it. We use them on euro trips and there is still room to get plenty of extras(shoes etc) in around the edges. One problem is that if you have the cd changer fitted you can't fill that corner of the triangular bag.

A couple of pics showing problem with the `hump' and final fit.

The other alternative is to use a Bootbag

Not used on myself but some of my TR owning friends swear by them

How often do you wear a dinner jacket in a year? I carry one at all times, never know when some gorgeous young lady will ask me out to dine!! JIM

"Always be prepared!"

Forgot to mention that I have a CD changer in the boot!

Not a dinner jacket. The suit I wear to more and more funerals it seems these days.

 

[Zeti]

True, but we have to keep positive attitude.....

 

[hard top]

True Zeti, we always get drunk afterwards.......

 

[zedonist]

I cannot believe you got that sofa in the boot Zeti?

Yes HT, we put our gear behind the seat, but in those vacuum bags, they end up wafer thin then!!! Great for a fortnights worth of Luggage for France!!!
