RE: Boot space

My Lab will go in easy, saying that he is small for a lab being from working stock and fit as a lop. He isnt your typical big fat slobbery chocolate show lab. He is 2.5 years old now and a lot of people think hes still a pup.

RE: Boot space

For sure your dog will fit, I have a Border Collie and she gets in fine.

However, make no mistake, the boot is surprisingly small. I went to London over the weekend, one small case, a cool bag, and a Bugaboo pram and the boot was full. For sure it's not the smallest pushchair in the world but even so I was surprised how little I could get in. Had to put the days shopping bags on the back seat!!

Roll on the Evoque XL - or will that be the new RR Sport!!

RE: Boot space

I think our new dog will fit, miniature Maltese that will grow to only 2.5kg. Not my choice of dog but a substitute baby for my wife. I think your lab will poo something bigger than our new dog Smile

Pure TD4, Fiji, Auto, Pan Roof + Extras - Delivered Very Happy

Apologies for my ignorance but is the boot of the 3dr the same size as the 5dr?

RE: Boot space

Luggage capacity is slightly lower in coupe

550 litres compared to 575 but I am not sure if that is just due to the extra height in the 5 door or extra usable space in the boot

My guess is it's the lower ceiling. We have 25kg kelpie (working dog).....any thoughts on whether he'll fit in the coupe?
