Title: Boot capacity
Post by Jonnycab on Jan 25^th, 2010, 10:47am

Anyone know what the boot capacities (litres) are for both the saloon & estate ?

Can't seem to find it anywhere :-/

If you want to convert cubic metres to a proper ;D measurement go to this site : http://www.metric-conversions.org/volume/cubic-meters-to-cubic-feet.htm

OK, I've done it for you :

Saloon : 0.465 cu metres = 16.4213 cu ft
Estate : 0.550 cu metres = 19.4230 cu ft
1.60 cu metres = 56.5034 cu ft

I'm sure my old Mk2 Granada estate was about 75 cu ft ???

I had a pal who said he had a six cylinder engine and a six cylinder boot (he worked for Calor Gas)

Lol Gozz ;D.....if I wanted to fill it with beer, then I'd be asking for the boot capacity in Pints ;D

The reason is, we had trouble fitting all the camping gear in the wifes estate last summer & was looking to get a roof box for this years camping trip.

The capacities of all the roof boxes I've looked at are in litres, so I wanted to know the sizes of the scorp boots to compare to sizes of roof boxes :)

When I bought my roof box, I just bought a big one!! The trouble is, after spending £300.00+ on one that would look good on the S Class, I realised just how big the boot was in the car and managed to fit all the holiday stuff in without using the roof box!! It still sits on top of the Corsair in the garage and has never been used !
