Boot Cover

I have a Marea Weekend bought for a bargain price on eBay.

Did it ever have a back boot cover?
One of those roller blind thingymajigs (i have all the techinical terms LOL) that covers up the toot in the back?

Mine appears to have Velcro along the edges by the windows but no cover.
Maybe this was something bodged by the previous owner.

Every other estate car i've owned had covers. And having to take tools out each night is not my idea of fun.

Re: Boot Cover

Sounds like it should, estates usually have a load cover. Try contacting the previous owner, they might have it stashed in their garage. Failing that I've always fancied limo tinting the rear windows around the load area

Re: Boot Cover

I'd have thought so, if you need one there's usually some in the scrapyards near me, i need to make a trip soon, but would imagine they'd be quite big to post. Where are you?

Re: Boot Cover

Re: Boot Cover

Thanks for the replies peeps.

I'm based in Essex near the Hertfordshire Border.
To Bulldog5046, i drove to Bristol once to visit a record fair just for something to do. And did i see you live Glasgow way mountainmachine? I'm mad enough to jump on a plane and go look lol.
I've tried looking for one on eBay to no avail. (That place keeps me poor lol) And i don't know of any breakers yards near me.

But now i know they are about i will take another look online and see what i can find.
