I love phase 1s, they look so honest.
I would have made it down last night but it was too cold and I was more than a little concerned I would have binned it on the way home getting overly excitable on the RS2 fun. Not a risk I was prepared to take with it all being so new (to me).
I got a roll of car carpet from wercarmats, used some cardboard to make a template of the bootspace then cut the carpet accordingly and Bob's your uncle! Just make sure you cut the carpet the right way up - I nearly did it upside down, which would have been a disaster as the bootspace isn't...
