I bought the Puma to carry my Mountain Bikes in and was looking for a Load Liner as they do get pretty muddy on times, then the girlfriend remembered that Costco had some Garage Floor Liners made by G Floor, but also had some smaller ones designed to fit in front of a BBQ.
At £10 each, I thought I'd be a cheapskate and buy 2 and fit them to the load area. As you can see from the photos, I removed the seat anchor trim cut the G Floor to fit and then held in place with the trim. My only concern is sometimes vinyl/rubber can seal condensation underneath, so I'll keep an eye on it. But for £20 I've got the entire load lined with good quality rubber. Ok there is an overlap, but still £20!

... Thanks again tax payers. I do sometimes think a proper LR one would be nice as it would fit perfect- but mine does the job

X-Isle - nice one! Exactly what I do a lot with mine (fits in perfectly with the left side of the seat folded as you've done)! I tuck the front wheel into a little bike stand then bungee the seatpost to the drivers side grab handle. Currently use a huge sheet of plastic but it's not very tidy.
Our dog tends to muck up the side carpets bit too (we have a central LR heavy duty mate for the floor) - WHY did LR line a boot of a Defender with carpet?!! Defender 110XS SW gone... now VW California 180 4 Motion. |

bm52 - we got ours chucked in when we bought the 110 (new ones) - very good but don't cover the side sections of the boot area. Defender 110XS SW gone... now VW California 180 4 Motion.
