Mine is an 80 litre, 360mm diameter by 892mm long.

Some dimensions of the various sizes here: http://www.stako.pl

I believe Tunnie went for a 90L which is 360x996.

Lazydocker has a 90L 400x847 IIRC.

Just a few of the sizes that are a "known fit" into a  saloon boot.

Did indeed, mine is the 'long and thin' 90L

LD's is 'short & fat' version which is higher, guess there is a slight benefit with longer ones as it does give you a little of space above the tank. Enough for a couple of popup disc shape tents

Downside being the large amount of wasted space between the seats and the tank, whereas mine sits almost against the seats

I thought Tunnie's looked a little further back. Didn't fit between the shock absorber turrets, I guess?

No not quite, still little bit of space although not much. TBH i don't mind that gap its perfect for things like an umbrella, blanket, winter gear and such, and its hidden from sight

It took a little gentle persuasion to get it where it is TBH ;)
