P38A will a p38 bonnet fit in the boot ? yes or no ?

alanlucas · Jun 18, 2022

some members on the range rovers.net forum reckon a bonnet will fit in the boot .
can anyone confirm this ?
personally i doubt it as the bonnet is the same overall width of the car

Maybe tilted, although I'm sceptical. Not gonna take mine off to try it though.

Diagonally maybe, a steel rule would confirm.

Drive the 6 miles without a bonnet and fit it when you get there

It's a brand new £60 bargain from Ebay.
The 2nd hand one I fitted after the telegraph pole incident in 2020 was full of filler and rotten along the front edge.
Been looking for ages but breakers still want £100 plus for a 2nd hand one with scratches, assuming I could find one in Oxford Blue.
Taking it to the bodyshop get it painted and fitted.
Managed to get it in the boot sideways with the curved back end around the lh wheelarch and the front lip sitting over the rh plastic boot trim.
Widthways no chance.
Tight fit - just enough room to shut the tailgate.

Side note… a Disco 2 bonnet will fit in a Disco 2 with the rear seats collapsed.
Ask me how I know.
