boot floor

The term boot refers to a family of instruments of torture and interrogation variously designed to cause crushing injuries to the foot and/or leg. The boot has taken many forms in various places and times. Common varieties include the Spanish boot (sometimes referred to as "scarpines") and the Malay boot. One type was made of four pieces of narrow wooden board nailed together. The boards were measured to fit the victim's leg. Once the leg was enclosed, wedges would be hammered between the boards, creating pressure. The pressure would be increased until the victim confessed or lost consciousness.

    Rattle under boot floor

    I have a regular rattle/clunk from under boot floor (?). Sounds like something small under there which is loose and free to roll about. This is not in the boot or its underfloor and inaccessible. Does anyone know how to access the cavity under there?

    What parts would I need to buy to have a split level boot floor on an SE?

    I mentioned to my wife earlier that the trophy spec has a split level boot floor, and that you can use it for storing things like charging cables underneath, as well as having an almost level boot floor when the rear seats are folded down. She's now asking if it's possible to buy the parts to...

    Boot floor dimensions?

    Hi, Just test drove an mg4 and likely going to order one. I forgot to bring a tape measure to the dealer. Would anyone be able to send dimensions of the boot floor? Width + depth ideally. I'm trying to work out which bouldering pads I have would fit in it. Cheers,

    Wheelchair loading hoist

    Has anyone fitted one of these units to an MG5 ? It seems to require one or two holes to be drilled in the boot floor so I thought I’d enquire before searching out the old Black and Decker. I’ll chase up a manufacturer and check with the insurance folks as well but wondered if anyone has fitted...
