Is that a full size style 5 wheel or just the space saver spare wheel?

It's the spare I ordered as an extra - not the full 19" size that I have on mine.

Hers a couple of pics of a style 7, just to note, you cannot close the tailgate with the floor cover down you have to fold in half.

Thanks for the pictures.

I suppose custom-building a new raised floor would be an option (or roof rack for wheel).

Jan '12 Dynamic SD4 Auto, 19" General Grabber AT, a few options, off to Kenya soon.

RE: A Good Reason To Order The Spare Wheel @ Factory!

Is there a different fitting underneath that flap for a car without the spare wheel? As in i see that polystyrene is shaped for a wheel to fit but if you have the can it that area under theflap different?

Reason I ask is that I am keeping my spare wheel & tool kit for my next Evoque so do I need to remove the whole lot?

These prices have increased significantly! I bought a space saver spare kit from Gordon Lamb in Chesterfield back in May12 and it was not nearly that much!!!
Plus it included all the foam inserts etc.

It's a different insert entirely with a few cuts outs for storage and dedicated slots for the compressor/gunk, lock nut etc.

Completely different foam insert which can only be removed by removing the side panels and load area trim.

I could not believe the cost of the space saver, foam, jack, brace and plastic lock/floor support....robbery. I would pay the £110 and get the car with the space saver kit from factory, although looking in the dealers when we where struggling to see how the foam came out not one of the 4 Evoques in the show room had one, so not a popular option?

In the states all Evoques come with the "space-saver" spare, which is much better than goo. Goo you can get for about $9.

I do not get not demanding the spare.

Then again, I guess we can all start running these...
