    As title really.

    I found a straight mint bonnet for my Mk2 which I'm collecting next week, and was wondering if it will fit in the back of my Mk2, with the seats out obviously.

    I've had pretty much everything else in the back of the Mk2, so I'm sure'ish this will fit.

    Cheers in advanced [:D]

    I had a Mk2 bonnet, a front valance and a few bits and bobs in my other one (also a 3 door) just before it came off the road :thumbup:

    if you dont mind driving without bonnet just take it off and fit when you get there, or swap it over when you get there if not. saves any chance of scuffing paint trying to put it in the back

    Thule 305's come in handy according to the FAQ on vortex they're only meant for 3dr which is news to me. I've used them on and off for years.

    Richard knew the answer anyway,


    I miss my mk2 loads of garden waste has gone to the tip in that thing.

    And I've had a couple of doors in her but you have to drive in a squat position.
