Yep, it’s a problem.
Currently, our fitter knows of only one hoist that will fit the Austral (or Qashqai – same underpinnings): the Autochair 80Kg 4 Way Compact Boot Hoist (Smartlifter Lc Range). He’s fitted several to QQs and one to an Austral.
The big picture problem is that the larger cars have disappeared off the scheme. This is bloody ridiculous!
