I've been a bit quite on here as I've been preparing for the Sabre's IVA test.
Whilst preparing for the IVA (which had its own share of issues) I found the time to line the boot. I used matching carpet and plywood covered in carpet.

The jack and wheel brace is a requirement for the IVA and of course is useful to change a wheel and is fixed to the bulkhead with a couple of wing nuts. i plan to make a cover at some stage.
The IVA requires you arrive with a full tank of petrol so a trip to the local petrol station was required to fill the tank. All 17 gallons!!

I filled the boot with a selection and spare bits and pieces in case there is something simple to fix at the IVA.
