I do know where the toolkit lives on touring! I do have one or two. Seven at the last count, I think.
How am I supposed to know you had the touring in France?

Not true! Load area in a saloon is a fair bit bigger than that in a touring, and the volume, up to the level of the load cover is greater as well. Get more in if you lay the rear seats flat, I suppose.ad318i wrote:more boot space for beer!
On the subject of beer, the cheapest place I've found for the stuff I buy, is a supermarket a few miles along the road from Adinkerke towards Calais.
