Q3 RSQ3 boot question

[Dr. Dave]

Hi all. I've progressed from an S3 Sportback to an RSQ3. Did a trial pack with the cases for going on holiday & surprised to find I can't get 2 cases in the boot (I could in the S3).
Question is this: Is there anything wrong with taking out the subwoofer & the polystyrene tray surrounding it to increase the capacity?
I've done it and it works well but I haven't driven the car like this yet. Anybody have any ideas?

Thanks, Dave.

Wait, the boot is smaller?

 

[Dr. Dave]

Yes the boot is SMALLER. 2 Samsonite hard cases fitted in the S3 Sportback boot with room for hand luggage & coats. Same 2 cases in the RSQ3 boot DON'T fit. Admittedly, I have the electric boot closure & it bumps back, but it still won't close even if I try to do it manually.

Not that I'm in the market for one but considering it's meant to be the chunky version of a A3 I'm surprised.

 

[Dr. Dave]

I was too!

 

[The Challinor]

Surely taller though?

 

[Dr. Dave]

Might be taller, but the original point remains

Well at least it a good looking car mate

Yes it is, thank you.
