Question

Ok some advice needed here plz

Am conisdering one of three boot mounted water tanks:

MRT




Forge

Spec R

The MRT is cheapest, but looks thinner and taller than the Forge, anyone used one? - Does it leak? How does it fit, i.e. does it bolt to the boot floor aka the Forge?

Any advice welcome

Have you thought of having one made to your own spec/size etc?
I had 1 made by Ralloy Engineering - Malton - 01653 696383
www.ralloy.com
It fitted behind my rally cars drivers seat, very snug, and excellent quality.

Cheers Deep, i'll give them a buzz a bit later, not sure on the one from Demon Tweeks could be a step into the unknown as it were, do you have a pic as I dont have a DT catalogue?

Dremel, Cheers, I may go down that route also, did yours leak or have any problems?

Just for you Toby;
'internally baffled against surge.335mm tall,190mm diameter on a 200mm x 200mm base.Can be made to your spec'.In the photo it looks nice and is cylindrical rather than jerry can shaped like the MRT.Yes there are screws in the base to mount it.£109.84+vat.
Anymore questions?
