Auto Express Tested 8 Car Boot Liners.

In August 2009 the popular car magazine "Auto Express" ran a test on a wide range of boot liners, from shaped floor mats right up to full base sides and back protection.

The test car was a Skoda Octavia hatchback model.

Boot Buddy were invited to submit their boot liner for test purposes.

Stiff plastic panels, held together neatly with Velcro and tailored to fit your car, offer the ultimate damage limitation. At this price (which includes the optional £15.00 flip-out protector and £19.99 anti-slip mat), the Boot Buddy covers both the floor sides and bumper.

It sailed through our drop test without leaving a mark and was quick to fit and remove. A great performer if you can justify the expense. Read more: http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/products/products/240124/boot_buddy.html#ixzz0PzPNFfM2

So according to Auto Express, if you need maximum protection for floor, sides, seat back and bumper, the Boot Buddy came through with flying colours. Not only that, in their "Drop Test" there was no damage transferred through the boot liner onto the car at all.
