Decent tool bag for the car boot?

[RobaBarker]

Hi all,

Just a quick one, can anyone recommend a decent tool bag for putting in the car boot?

I've got a mk2 MX-5, so I'm not exactly blessed with tonnes of spare room, but I'd like something that can hold a basic socket set, a few screwdrivers, cable ties, small bottle of coolant etc.

I've got one of those basic 'flap over' boot organisers in there at the minute, but it collapses every time I take something out of it, so something with a rigid base would be ideal!

Maybe I should just buy a standard DIY tool bag and stick some velcro on the bottom of it?

i've got a couple of these-



heavy canvas with a zippered top, about a foot long...they don't slide about on boot carpet.

They are about £10-15 each

A Screwfix tote bag - but may need a plywood base insert ?

I'm more tempted by the DeWalt of the two, the fact the Screwfix one is open-topped, nearly a foot-and-half long and has a rigid metal handle that makes it a foot tall (and might stop my boot closing) sort of rules it out!
