spare wheel well, now all sorted thanks to this forum

Hi All

I recently picked up a 2012 (12 plate) XS SD4 auto.

Lovely car......now SWMBO wants mine instead of her 2013 GS TD4 manual Mr. Green

However, it came with a can of the dreaded sealant instead of a proper spare wheel or even a space saver. As an old school LR driver of many years, this just isn't right!

So,.....if I remove the polystyrene insert in the back that contains the can of foam and bottle of gunk, can I fit a proper spare wheel in there?

If so, what bits do I need to secure it?

Thirdly, if both these are possible, does anyone have a 235 x 65 x 17 wheel and tyre for sale, please?

Many thanks in advance.

Hi Luke

Yes, the spare wheel fits into the well. In addition to the wheel, you will need a jack, wheelbrace and toolkit clamping screw plus the clamping screw / floor support that is currently holding your foam insert in place and will be needed to hold the wheel securely in the well.

It's true that light travels faster than sound, some people look quite intelligent until you hear them speak.


Stop global winging.
