Does Volvo do a rubber mat for the boot for 7 seat config?
many thanks,

They do a split mat for around £80. Remove 1 section if you want the rear seats up.

For many years we have used rubber backed bathroom carpet for the boot

You can buy offcuts large enough to do the job for just a few pounds and cut it to shape. A large number of colours are available to suit the car

It doesn't move, stuff on top of it doesn't slide, and if, by chance, something gets spilt on it, it's cheap to replace and start again

Hello, I think its only a reversible carpet/rubber mat that is available, there is a 2 part tray as 400 ascona states, it made of a not very flexible plastic but has a non-slip coating so stuff doesnt slide about and it has raised edges incase of spills. we have been using one since we got the car and apart from storing it when you are using the 7 seats ( it doesnt fold or roll up,) its excellent.

Hope it helps

Just buy a couple of heavy rubber boot mats from costco at £9.00 each.

thanks all... my car is always as 7 seater so £80 is a lot to put 2/3 in the garage. Thought about piece of carpet or rubber mat before... will just do that.

Hi

There is a seller on ebay that does aftermarket mats at a great price.

I have now bought 4 of them from him for different cars.

Boot Mat

Dont worry when they are delivered rolled up - leave them out for a day and they go dead flat again.

Very resilient and easy to clean.... I just give it a quick power wash now and again.

The only downer on any mat is if you use all the seats - I dont think any solution other than having two different sized mats is ideal.
