Any novel ways to carry the spare rather than have it rolling around the boot space? The LPG container is in the well in the boot & it's a nuisance!
Hi Wills ,yes mine is a diesel p38 & I think it is fantastic! Car in question is nephew's , living in Spain where it is a legal requirement to carry a spare at all times (& he's getting it registered there , paperwork/approval/inspections have to be 100% correct) So because of the nuisance factor with the wheel filling up the boot, trying to come up with a solution. Someone must have solved this considering the number of LPG conversions carried out!
Was thinking of a bog standard clamp on rack on the bonnet but rejected on
too many obvious negatives. Thought about mounting under the tow bar arms kinda like a spare on a trailer..no ! A tow bar mounted carrier would seem like a good solution (same principle as a bike rack) but can't source anything. I would have thought the expedition suppliers would have something but so far must be looking in the wrong places.
A test for ingenuity & improvisation!
If he isn't goign for looks could he maybe just carry it on the roof on a roof rack to pass the inspection and then remove it until he finds a better solution??

in this case stick it in the boot at mot times...........
