Tailgate hooks

Yeah, they look pretty pointless to me. How could you hang anything on them with the boot closed?
The ST has two similar hooks on the sides of the boot. While a lot more sensible they still aren't very good. The hooks are too low to hold a typical size of carrier bag and they are shallow so are not very secure. A good idea poorly implemented.

So you drive back with the boot open and your ruby swinging in mid air?
Curry on one side and wetsuit on the other
They are for hanging handbags, jacket etc on while you put the messages/baby buggy in, so that you then put them in last on the top, then when you home easy get the house keys out without having to take everything else out first.
After picking them out of the remains of your Ruby that have slid all over the boot because of the lack of some hooks.......

Unless you have the ST... The side hooks are perfect for exactly this situation. I've used mine to avoid this more than once!
Just been n checked , two in our boot too. Never noticed before tbh , most of our local Indian/Thai/Chinese etc deliver, although I'm sure other half has used them during that strange 'shopping' ritual she does.....

Yes, but they are not very good hooks. Maybe Spanish carrier bags are smaller but the hooks are too low and not a very 'hooky' shape. Several times I've hooked bags on them only for the handle to just lift off the hook and set the bag free.
Good point, that would work! Hadn't thought of that. We never put the floor down and to be honest, I forget it does that ;0) Thank you for the reminder though as my son and I are going to Glentress in the morning so I need to put two bikes in the car and dropping the floor will help!
Need to buy roof-bars one of these days...
I have a 1.6TDi, the slowest Leon they make! No Cupra-mode, you've got tortoise-mode and tortoise-with-a-kick-up-the-ass-mode ;0) Only way I could get two wheels off the road would be to put the thing in a field...
