Poster: A snowHead

If concerned about skis down the middle, you can take them out of the bags and put tips over the back seats & tails under the front seats; or sideways on with tails between handbrake and front seats. Also done that with 4 pairs, 4 passengers and smallish cars....

At Easter our skoda superb broke down on the way to Les Arcs and the insurance company supplied us with a fiat 500XL. The euperb is a huge car, the boot was full(ish) there were 4 of us adults in the car and we had skis on the roof. The Fiat didn't even have a roof rack. Amazingly we got almost everything in. The secret turned out to be stacking luggage in the boot to the height of the rear seats, staking the bedding, towels etc between the seat to the same height and keeping this stack upto the same height jammed between the front seats. The skis (upto 1.8m long) then rested on this and the dashbord. the rest of the luggage was then pushed into the boot upto the roof. Believe it not the passengers were comfortable enougth to endue the next 800km. No one had luggage around their feet or on their laps.

I have booked the cheapest “standard wagon” I could get thanks for the help on this.
Though I just received an email from Avis offering their “select” service where you can order an exact car model. I had a look through and the Toledo wasn’t an option (but a 3 other seat models were). It does show that they are starting to respond to the market demand though so maybe this may become more of an option in the future.

They didn’t look that much more than Avis over priced normal offering.
My booking through Ebookers for MegaDrive came up at around half the prices quoted by Avis for the vehicle class we booked in the end.
