My Estate (Combi) doesn't have a variable boot floor. Does anyone know if this could be fitted retrospectively and any ideas as to the cost? 

I would think that it almost certainly can be as it doesn’t look that complex.  Parts wise I don’t know but Dealer prices will be silly money - possibly above £500 inc Labour?

 

if you can find a parts database that might give you enough info to self-source the bits. 

Be careful. My Skoda Superb Estate was ordered with the variable boot floor but delivered without. This was the dealer's fault. They reckoned they could fit one themselves. It took four attempts and must have cost close to £1,000 with parts and labour.

The problem is that the entire boot are needs to be re-built from scratch, and it is hard to know exactly what parts are needed in advance.

Thanks for your input Chris. It doesn't bother me enough to go to that much expense . I can easily live without it, just simply a nice to have.

Look at page 3/4 in this thread:

 

 

 

I was going to ask Skoda about retro fitting the floor to the Superb I'm collecting next week and, having seen Sasha's Octy install I'll not bother.

 

The one on my Octy 1 was factory order, the one on my Octy 2 was retrofit, about £150 and about 1/2 hour's work, the citigo was cheap and easy. This looks silly.

 

I may have a look to see if it could be achieved with the "floor" piece and a batton running down each side instead of all the gubbins.

I reckon most people with the variable boot floor stash odds and ends under it but 99% of the time never go under it or drop it down. So you could make your own out of decent 10mm ply and wood to support it, split into say 1/3 and 2/3 roughly like the real VBF so you can easily lift out the rear 1/3 part to get to the tools etc. Then get the reversible boot mat from Super Skoda to cover it.

That's my thought. The main aim is a flatter load area and somewhere to stash a couple of things I don't want rattling about (pop up tent for the beach, shovel for the snow, kite etc)

 

The reversible mat from Superskoda is on its way already.

 

I'll have a look when the car turns up and get my circular saw out. I'm not fussed about hinging it, just being able to get the back 1/3 out to access the under floor space and spare wheel.
