We just bought a new washing machine and it went in my twin door no problems.

But removing it up & over the boot lip might be a problem, all that concrete inside makes them a bit heavy......

 

I do miss my old Mondy wagon, if we do buy a Superb 3 it will have to be an estate.

That's a shame but it is good they have gone for a pure hatchback rather than a pure saloon.

 

BMW 3 Series, Audi A4, Mercedes C Class, VW Passat etc. all have big boots but aren't much use as very little will pass through the tiny saloon opening.

 

I do prefer the looks of a saloon over a hatch/estate which is why the S2 appealed; saloon shape, hatchback opening.

 

I'll happily sacrifice the twindoor for a rear wiper though 

I have no problem with the twin boot being dropped. As a taxi driver I am forever opening the boot as you can imagine, but trying to get people's weekly shopping into the boot with the default opening is a nightmare. If they have more than two bags I tend to open it as the hatch. Every taxi driver I know of who has owned the pre FL SII has had problems with the boot.
