I have designed these bespoke "weekenders", adjusted to the space behind the seats.   Do you have a web address to order these! I think they are lovely!  I would be interested too

Chaps,
What sort of size, roughly (ltr) holdall can be placed behind each seat ? My seat will be pretty much as far back as it will go.

I've just got my first Morgan and wonder, does the extra weight at the back cause any problems e.g. bottoming out or back becoming tail happy Thats what I was wondering too. I think I would prefer as much as I could behind the seats and not too big a lump on the rack !

The Hills alive cases are designed to fill the void, We still keep coats on top & a brolley under them.  can get 2 weeks of clothes in one, the case is then for warm weather coats & shoes.

I have used pallet wrap and a heat gun when having to use external. It costs about £10 for a decent roll. You could use the Rimowa for strength and then give it a quick wrap for weather proofing?
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

For anyone still looking for Morgan luggage and suitcases I can manufacture it all - to your colour spec as well. I have fitted luggage for behind the seats on trad Morgans and for the Aeros boots as well. I have also made sutcases for the luggage racks (I wanted one for my own Morgan) and these can be made in any size to suit, but they are usually 80cm long, by 45-50cm wide, but 18-20cm high - so this still allows good vision in the rear view mirror and for high-level brake lights. see www.classictravellingluggage.com for all the details.

Large wheeled holdall bag. Got one with exactly same dimensions as the space behind seats. £25 on Amazon. All luggage out in a oner! I just don't like big lumps on the rack obscuring the rear view.

I use a Bootbag on the rack. A soft waterproof suitcase shaped bag with straps. It doesn’t sit as high on the rack as a suitcase so good rear view. Holdalls behind the seats for additional luggage ( unless we have the dog in there!). I sometimes put bin bags over the Bootbag as well for extra insurance.

I too go with the Bootbag on the rear rack of my +8 in which I put two soft holdall type bags doesn't block the upper light or rear view and is completely waterproof, easy to carry as one item. This set up plus the rear shelf space was enough for two of us during six weeks covering 8000 miles in absolutely all sorts of weather.
