Not a good idea if your thinking of doing this long term. If your car gets rear ended..............you could be toast!
If you have to carry fuel it might be safer to get the smaller metal (10Lt) jerry cans.

Ian - no different to that or the flamable brake fluid, or the battery acid or ....
Cars are dangerous but then we know that.
Bearing in mind the use of it, I would make a solid cage for a can of two behind the firewall similar to this kind of thing for the jerry cans:

that looks good, wonder what other people do, who want it for the same use?

the fuel tank was crushed but did not split, however the contents of the boot and the boot floor were well messed up, there is no telling what forces areat work during a collision!!
Not being funny or clever mate but is worth the risk for a few ltrs of juice

point one no mater what can u use the car is most definatly gona stink of fuel
point two unleaded is highly carsonagenic as in not good for sprogs! but if you really feel the need to carry fuel when i do track days i take extra fuel in the spare wheell well 2, 5lt containers each in a couple of bin liners and leave the window open and i can still smell petrol the next day when i get in the car. i find the square black ones for diesel are best cos its easier to wedge them in and they dont toppel over.. but as has been said its a bad idea! i prefer to keep some nf octane booster just in case i get caught short..
