Default Boot storage options

Had the same problem in my old classic and now i've got the same problem with the Type R.

I keep my valeting stuff and a few parts etc in the boot to save cluttering up the cabin but cant seem to find anything to stop it all rolling around in there.

Anyone got/used/recommend a good, secure way to store stuff in a classic boot?

I put what I can in the spare wheel well then anything else in a bag with Velcro strips glued to it in order to stop it flying around.

I've got a valeting bag with velcro on that sticks to the boot liner and sides but its heavy and doesnt stay there for long if you take it round a few corners in a "spirited manner" shall we say.

Thanks, but I have similar already and it moves around too much. Really looking for a box/trunk type think, or a way of securing things so they dont move around.

Just stick it in the house if you haven't got a garage or shed.
Put it in the kitchen under the sink.

Unless ofcourse you randomly stop while out cruising to polish your car.....
