Car Tidies Tested

Give cabin clutter the boot with an organiser. For only a few pounds, you no longer have to put up with bottles and kit sliding around the luggage bay or footwells. Instead, it will all be in one place – so you know exactly where to look for your de-icer or fluid top-ups. 

There is a wide range of 
organisers on the market, for 
the cabin or the boot. We put 
eight to the test to see which packed the biggest punch.

Space and practicality are crucial here, so we tried to squeeze 
in a selection of typical boot 
kit, such as cleaner, a 12-volt 
compressor, tow rope, top-ups 
and a small tool bag. We also wanted to see pockets for small items like pressure gauges and cloths. All tidies were rated for quality, handles for simple removal and security ties. 
Price was the final factor.

A winning blend of little and 
large helps Sakura secure top 
spot with its versatile twin pack. Reigning champion Sumex has 
to settle for second – it’s a great boot solution, yet can’t match 
the Sakura’s price or package. 

The similar Halfords folding 
organiser takes third place, but could do with carpet grips.
