What is this?

Postby BeechGTA » Fri Mar 20, 2020 2:31 pm

Many years ago I owned a GTA 2.8 and I’ve just come across this forgotten accessory that was with it. I always thought it was a ground sheet but now I open it I see it’s a huge, heavy duty, plastic bag. The package is 18x12x5cm and the bag opens to 112x64 (x30 at top - sealed flat at bottom). I was going to put it on eBay but if not a ground sheet I don’t know what it actually is.

I think it's the bag for the wheel in case you have a puncture and need to transport the full size wheel inside the car.

Brilliant - thanks Dave. And yes it still has the plastic gloves. Didn’t remember that the rear didn’t fit the spare compartment. Should have known because I did end up stowing a rear wheel in the passenger footwell once. Could have used it!
