So your're thinking of sleeping in your car at an i-series.....

For those of you who are considering sleeping in your car at the event (nutters) may i recommend you consider this "modification"

that is awesome WK!!!

Problem is minidisk is not all estates when you put the seats down give you a level floor (I know from experience a Mondeo MK3 2000-2007 estate is almost perfectly flat with the seats down, however a Astra Estate or Focus Estate is not as well as some other larger estates, i know this because I tried this out at Available Car's lot specifically for LANs before buying the Mondeo) so this is pretty nice might have to consider it if I get another estate again

My merc does, but you have to remove the lower seat squab.

The plus side it makes a great pillow.

Also, this gives you a nice secure storage place under the bed, and a decent bed to sleep on (i.e. not an air bed).
