Question About Storage Space In The Trunk Area

[soundhd]

In the process of investigating XLR's for the purchase of one. Realized that there does not seem to be much storage space in the trunk area. Can anyone tell me if there is enough space either in the trunk area or behind the seats to store a folded up sports chair? (have included a photo of the type of one that I usually use at classic car events).

thanks

I use a collapsible chair. The ones that have their own storage bag. Otherwise the chair that’s pictured will only fit if you leave top up. Then take the chair out when you get to destination then you can drop top.

something like these that are pictured. Then I have a poster board that I use for when I attend shows. This fits just right and I can still drive top down. The board lays flat and has just inches to spare so it doesn’t scratch the back glass window. I use the right side storage well for my cleaning products like microfiber and car spot cleaning bottles. Then I have a collapsible table (legs come off) that I fit in the trunk.

I have two nice foldups we take to shows. One even has an 'awning' for shade. Admittedly we must leave the car top up until unloading, but when you fold down the little parcel partition in the back of the trunk, you have a surprisingly large area for stuff. We easily fit three suitcases, plus lots of smaller goodies, when we go travelling. When you get where you're going, unload the stuff into the motel room, put the top down, and GO BOOGIE!

Thanks for the replies. I did figure that the fold up type chairs with the bags will fit but they are hard for me to get in & out of.....my age is showing...... But a friend of mine owns a 1977 Ferrari 308 GTB and that also has very limited storage space anyway he found a chair kind of like the type I use but it folds up really small so I am going to borrow that when I go out to check out a XLR for sale not far from me early next week and see if it fits in the trunk...if successful will post the info with a photo on this section.

thanks

I think you are talking about these chairs

. The description says it will fold up to 1/16 if it’s size and has its own storage bag. The bag doubles as a storage pouch for magazines and glasses. The bag can be placed on the back of the chair

We have two of those chairs, hawkeye. They fit perfectly in the small compartment, and you can lower the top with them in. They lay flat and I have 2 umbrellas that clamp on the chairs. All fits in the golf club trunk perfectly along with a folding table I found

It's like those PICO chairs were made to fit the cubby area. They lay perfectly flat
