Default XC60 Load Area Rubber Mat.

XC60 Load Area Rubber Mat. Any advice on who make the best value ones of these ?

I do not want one with high sides as I like to be able to drop the seats and still get a full length box item in.

Exact fit would seem to be best but if a self cut one fits well that might be the best way to go?



Any forum member’s advice would be helpful thanks.

I bought the official Volvo 'Complete Dirt Protector' (http://www.volvocars.com/uk/all-cars...4-874b330fb9f0) for around £100 as it protects the sides, the back of the seats and when the seats are folded down it protects the enire load area.

It may not as hard as a rubber mat, but I haven't manage to split it yet and I have had BBQs, fridges washing machines and hay bales in my car

When it is not in use I leave it connected to the back of the seats and roll it up at the back - very handy and I can recommend it.

I have that too.

I have to say it is the best boot protector I have had in a long time.
So useful and so handy

I have two the small rubber one: http://vccs.volvocars.se/Accessories...ent/VCC-419520
Fits fine, onfirst glance looks a little flimsy but the rubber side does stop items from moving.

Got this free as I had specified the one below, and had to wait, and the full length reversible not used this a great deal, it won't give the same level of protecion as the full metal jacket affair the other chaps have, but its comfy to sit on the back of the car.

i have a cannon boot mat mat... it is generic and has lines on it to cut to shape and help in keeping it symetrical.
i think i paid about £30 for it 4 years ago, and certainly maintained the boot carpet as good as new in this time.

i had it in my old Grand Cherokee (sorry for swearing) and it is exactly the same shape as the XC60, so was great to just transfer across.

you can cut to fit perfectly and nice and heavy duty. had loads of spills and has really taken a hammering so is up to the job.

Official Volvo one is over £100 - too expensive - so I looked for alternatives. I bought one recently from Bootliners (http://www.bootsliners.co.uk/VOLVO-X...OOT-LINER.html), around £36 including postage. Ordered one day, received the next - excellent service. The fit is good, even has preformed area cutouts for the load retaining clips.
Not as thick a material as the Volvo one but good enough for my purposes. As the liner arrives rolled up you may have to put a heavy weight (I used garden lawn fertiliser!) to iron out the creases but after a few days everything fitted beautifully.

This is exactly the same as the one I purchased from Bootliners (at least the photo is!). Looks like I paid over the odds
