Hello -
Anyone here got a Brompton and an Evora? And if so, does it fit on an Evora's back seat?
Odd question I know, but important to me!
Thanks!

Oily bike + nice car = disaster.

It more than likely would fit but you'd want tarpaulins, blankets, oil resistant mats, chain ring resistant leather protectors, and a harness to stop it moving and scratching up the hard plastic backs on the front seats.

More trouble than it's worth imo.

Oily bike?! It's got a case. And the bike takes priority over the car, so if I can't get it in, I don't get the car! Nothing ventured...

If it does you'll be the first person to get an old bike or an old bag into the back of the Evora...kids barely fit!

A case? Bless, you must love that bike!

What are the dimensions, I'll go and measure up smile

Yep, I do. Most kind offer though. Dims: 585mm high x 545mm long x 270mm wide. Cheers!

It'll fit with plenty of room to spare and you'll be able to fit it in through the door fine too. You could even lay it flat if you didn't drive with the seats right back.

Thanks very much for checking that for me. I'll arrange a test drive then! Cheers
