DO you reckon you could fit a 2.0 XE in to the back of a Corsa with a gearbox aswell, with the seats down/removed of course? Don't have a trailer/access to a van

^ Tidy boot!

It'll fit no problems mate, infact you probably won't even need to fold the rear seats down (unless you wanna lower the centre of gravity lol

They look bigger in the bay :thumb:

Deffinately, I put one in the back of a ka with the gearbox still attached. I still managed to get a weeks worth of shopping in there too. It was a right 4rse to get it out though.

i picked up my XE with a cav, 200 miles home with an XE in the boot, i was lighting tree tops instead of the road lol

i had an XE in the back of a nova, with the rear seats in place! junt be careful when closing the boot lol,almost cost me a rear window.

If youre putting it in the boot of a small hatch, take some form or ratchet strap or at least something to tether it to the car in some way, you want to make sure its secured in case anyone crashes into you or anything, you dont want to be wearing the xe as a neck brace :eek:
