Default Cargo area length

Hi all. Quick question. I don't have my car for a few days and have the opportunity to get a fridge slide. What's the length in the rear cargo area? The one I can get is 700 mm long and I want to know if it will fit. I'm putting my 38 litre Engels Eclipse in it.
Cheers in advance Doc

I can't measure mine at the moment but keep in mind that the floor length is not the concern. I have a EvaKool. And it 'just' fits. The issue is the way the back of the rear seat slopes backwards. Also the tailgate intrudes into the rear. Have a measurement with the tailgate closed and the rear seats up.

regards

Thanks brucet I'll keep that in mind. Hopefully I'll be able to get access today to measure it.

OK the KK is back home. I've just run the tape over it.
Floor length, (at floor level), is 820mm. However from the back of the seat to the tailgate is only 680mm.
Remember the seat leans back and the tailgate intrudes, at an angle, into the cargo space.

regards

Oh lord, that's tight. Thanks sooooo much for doing that. I won't have access to the old girl for another few days and need to make decision today. So I really appreciate that brucet. It will just fit but tight. The handles are removable on my fridge so I will have to manufacture some tie down points but the main thing is it will fit. Thanks heaps again mate.

My EvaKool is 650mm long, including handles. Handles are 300mm off the floor. So it just fits. Measure the longest part of the fridge and how high that is off the floor. You maybe surprised what will fit.

good luck.

Well it's in and it's fine. Fits my Engels equipe no problems with rear seat up.

Thanks to brucet for his help with this one. Greatly appreciated mate.
