what shall I put in there, then?

[sara3]

my new-ish car, a Ford Fiesta (yawwwwnn) has hardly any storage space but.. there's a little letterbox type opening (with a flappy cover that won't stay closed tight) measuring about 1.5" X 5". it slopes back and slightly downwards. I can get my fingers in and wiggle them, but I can't reach the back of it.

so, what the hell is that meant for?

[woofgang]

Is it for storing the car handbook in?

[sara3]

red, that's interesting.. there's a lighter holder further down, but no lighter!

S-C.. will there be many crossings going on?

[sara3]

woof, that's far too sensible.... but you may just have a point! well well well :o)

[ummmm]

My Dad won a 4ft long and 1ft high toblerone. We had to cut it up with a saw :-)

[jackthehat]

If you store your Toblerone in there, it'll sound like you've taken up playing the Guiro every time you stop at the traffic lights.....:o)

[mccfluffy]

We had one of those, thought i had died and gone to choc heaven

[nungate]

Maybe it's a way into Narnia...................

[sara3]

jack.. you send me to google every day ;o)

4' of Toblerone? swooooooooooooooooon!

S-C, I'll start dropping the coins in x

[askyourgran]

Is it to plug your iPod in or something electronic, maybe to charge your mobile with. Other than that for a secret stash of curley wurleys.

[sara3]

nungate, I'll take a torch out tomorrow to have a peek.

gran, there are no connections there, so Curley Wurleys it is :o)

I wouldn't put your hand in too far........................







Something might grab it!!!!!!!!!!!!

[AB Editor]

Is it big enough for one of those little extending/fold-out umbrellas? Might be handy to be able to reach one from within the car, rather than having to go to the boot for an umbrella?

Possibly being too sensible?

[venator]

Stick a CD in - it might even play...

[SeaJayPea]

Is it not meant as storage for a few CDs?

[sara3]

wow, my avatar changed and I'm bored of it already!

Ed, I don't think I could squish an umbrella in but that was v sensible, thank you.

venator, there is a CD player just above, so I think not ;o)

SJP, I think I'd lose my fingers trying to get CDs out from there, along the lines of SlackAlice's comment!

[AlBags]

Yes ... stick your hand in your slot too far .. and you won't get it out again ; )

[sara3]

there's always one... *rolls eyes*

[AlBags]

Isn't there just ; )

(and it's not usually me!) x
