And when you're 6'4" tall and skiing on 180s, that means they'll have to be inside the car Rolling Eyes

Maybe time for a ski box, or use of the sunroof cappo Wink

Why not get an aftermarket roof rack setup for this use? FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

Could do Will, but there are only 2 of us travelling and it would just be nice the slot the skis through - even the Coupe has one!!

we drop one of the back seats forward and but the skis across at an angle. Gives a little extra space for the luggage as well.

Could take the coop them fella Very Happy

How about folding down the 1/3 section of the rear seats though it would allow some extra noise into the cabin Sad FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

United Kingdom 2013 Range Rover Vogue SE SDV8 Santorini Black

Ski locker is an optional extra - but fortunately standard on the Vogue SE for a while including mine Very Happy

It's good for a couple of pairs of skis - but i can't get my snowboard through it Big Cry

Luckly there are 6 of us that go together & take 2 FFRR's so we drop the 1/3 seat in one of them - 4 of us ski & board so we take plenty of kit. The current project is ski bikes so we will have a couple of those next year too Thumbs Up

United Kingdom 2011 Range Rover Vogue SE TDV8 Bournville

Last time I went I folded down the rear arm rest and put the skis on top of other luggage in the middle, they just rest on the back of the front arm rest but not enough to cause an obstruction, that way you still get to use the two rear seats. 2021 P400 Silicon Silver AB

2 choices, 180s will fit across from o/s to n/s if you ditch the shelf, or you can feed one set flat through the fold under the arm rest. letters not necessarily in the right order

Switch to carvers- prob solved! No seriously I've dropped half the rear seat in the past as per David's suggestion.

I added the hatch on mine with some careful use of a jigsaw
- drill a hole at each corner from the car side, then join up the holes with a straight edge & jigsaw from the boot side (I seem to vaguely remember that I removed the whole fibreglass carpeted back of the rear double seat to do this neatly).
