Title: Cubby Holes on estate
Post by: Radar on 22 October 2011, 21:20:26
Just seen Rob Gs car for sale and wondered in the photos of the boot there is a left and right cubby hole open - but what do they show? the left looks like a fan - probably a dumb question but i am curious?

On the left is the Bose subwoofer (which my car should also have, except someone yanked it out and cut the wires before I got there :( ) and on the right is, I believe, the Bose amplifier and .. something I can't recall just above it.

Ah! I was going to say that, but had a moment of doubt, then convinced myself that it was the aerial amplifier, realised I'd confused myself and thought I'd better keep quiet.. ;D

When I read the title to this thread I thought someone had spotted my old mate Cubby Holes on their land. I haven't seen Cubby for a long time. He used to be a film director and made lots of the James Bond films. I'd loved to have caught up with him again.

My Volvo 960 estate, now that had real cubby holes. when you lifted the floor for the spare wheel there was a 6" deep space to store stuff and then either side of the spare wheel, a floor panel lifted out, which gave you a space about 12" deep x 9" wide and 18" long. When I used to regularly go to France these were really useful additional storage areas.  ;D ;D ;D

The car's performance was about the same as 3L miggy, the biggest problem was the car's handling, worse than a camel.  ::)
