What's under a Vee's bonnet?

Nothing-

You have a black plastic Cover which forms part of the the bay for putting your luggage-
Although theres only room for one or two bags-

Thought so - probably so little as the wheels are so huge too.

Useless for that but brilliant for keeping take away food warm

 

[Ryan1286]

Wow, thats excellent! I need to have more of a look through v6clio.net. Have the sticker in my back window from previous owner, but never find the time have a good look around on the net!

Despite owning a Vee, this is my favourite under bonnet picture

I think the front tray resembles one of those moulded garden ponds.

I've usually get a couple of bags of shopping in it, other than that the go down the pass footwell.

I quite like the 'mantle piece' behing the seats though, I usually put my gym bag/small suit cases on it.

I've never had the dust part ever.

 

[Ryan1286]

Hmmm, i need to investigate this. Or it could just be all the country lanes i live down maybe....

 

[cat171]

^ could be yeah. I've had it for two years now (to the day lol) and i've never had dust.

A 1.2 8v engine afaik!

If necessary it would be fairly straightforward to make a cover which could be attached by press-studs ... Hmmmm may do this as a little project ...

The reality though is that I have never got anything wet in there ... It does get slightly dusty from time to time as has been mentioned ...

It can hold a variety of things and a fair size travel bag etc. Things can be put on the engine cover as has also been mentioned - though on mine I have no cover anymore (well it's in the shed) ...

As with most things you adapt to the level of practicality and work round it ... If people have a Vee as a second car, then space can be less of a concern ...
