That's the punishment for playing golf 😜

We're doing the NC500 soon over 5 days so that'll be the first time we've had to squeeze a lot in the boot. When we used to own a Lotus the secret was always compressible bags. I've been known to walk into a 4 or 5 star hotel with an Asda carrier bag in my hand πŸ˜‚ They were great for squeezing into the corners of the Lotus boot. Hoping I don't need to go that far with the F-type!

I made some measurements of the coupe boot to help me choose suitable bags. It really is the oddest shape but as mentioned above, you can get a couple of 12” wide bags in comfortably and then use soft bags to fill up the funny corners and angles. Attached is my plan and elevation sketch - please note that it is seriously simplified, I’d need a laser scanner to do the space justice. Any dimensions should be treated with extreme caution.

I'm not sure the power tailgate has an anti-trap facility? .
Wouldn't want to test it on my fingers, Certainly squashed that box without hesitation!

Bit early for xmas...??!

The boot in litres on the Coope without spare wheel is quite big to be fair. It's just a flat space.

It fits my full golf clubs, bag and trolley and work ruck sack and shoes without issue. Just have to take the 3 and driver out of the bag first.

If you don't pack it quite right the parcel shelf sticks up 2 inches but I didn't chose the powered tailgate so no risk of it forcably closing and causing damage. (The last half inch is powered though).

@Millwheel.
It looks to me you left the whole fender areas out ? I bought 4 soft bags and had them costumised. I put a smaller bag in each fender first and
then put the longer baggs in the centre part. Slide them forward and you can put baggs with shoes and such near the lock area..

By the time the missus has all her shoes packed, there's enough room for me to squeeze in a pair of socks and a handkerchief πŸ˜‰

Lol I know what you mean, when we go on holiday we use two aircraft cabin size trolley bags, placed side by side vertically and then soft bags around them and still room for coats on top.

Btw you can also get a fishing rod hold-all in by removing the rear parcel shelf and sliding it in down to the the passenger footwell, did this many times last year...
