Hoping someone can help...

Can someone with an Octy vRS hatch please measure the diagonal distance available with the rear seats folded down. I have to carry a 2m long projection screen in mine tomorrow and need to know if it will fit!!!

I would do it myself but I am at work and the Octy is at home!!!

Many thanks

If there is nobody in the front passenger seat you should have miles of room. If not, they could rest it on their shoulder.

Should have gone for the sunroof option!!!

Potentially 3 people in the car :eek:

After the overwhelming response I have worked it out myself

Using Pythagoras Theory!!! Never thought I would need that again...

"Pythagoras' Theory states that the square on the hypoteneuse of a right-angled triangle is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides."

So...

The long and short of it is that the 2 metre long projection screen will fit with 26.3 cm to spare!!!

For the record the diagonal is 226.3 cm long

I'll find out if my maths are correct tomorrow

My suggestion about using a shoulder still holds good.

It was good advice and much appreciated

...and when my maths let me down tomorrow I will be using it
