open flap in boot, lift out that plastic tray, look back under the rear edge / nearest bumper, slightly to the right of center

Hi

Sam here from Marshall Volvo Bishops Stortford

Speak to our Volvo Parts Advisor and Accessories Champion Hayden Frost on 01279213999 or hayden.frost@marshall.co.uk

Here is one way of solving the problem.

that is really cool imagine the amount of time and effort to make that all match up, trim, paint, wheels.. although, does the trailer look slightly higher or is that just perspective..

It's a classic thing they do with mini's quite a lot, I've seen loads like this

When kids arrived and I realised we couldn’t get the kids paraphernalia, family tent and associated gubbins in the car I invested four hundred quid in a used trailer tent (camplet in my case) that has a hard roof in trailer mode, so a roof bag with all the sleeping gear and what ever else will fit gets strapped to the trailer roof, along with kids bikes, pushchair etc.
We only have 2 kids by the way...
