M4 Boot Storage
Is the M4 boot (non-convertible) the same size as a standard 4-series?
I have a latptop to throw in the boot, and am looking for storage options to prevent it sliding around.

I know that it does not directly answer your question, but what I have is a non-slip mat in the boot, and a collapsible crate (from Wickes or B&Q). Stops stuff moving around in mine.

Is your mat a snug model-specific shape, or just a piece laid in the middle of your boot?
I was thinking of getting 4 metal velcro secured corners to stick down creating a frame for me to lay my bag into. Had this in a previous Jag, but the velcro wrecked the original boot carpet, so if I went down that route, I'd have to lay a boot liner down first.

The OEM BMW sculptured liner from my 330d fits perfectly in my M4 so the floor area at least is the same.

It comes with a net if you go for the storage option. I've never used it!

My other half had a 420d which had the extended storage (including net anchored to boot floor). When we px’d it I swapped the boot floor section with my m4 as I didn’t have that option and it was exactly the same size part. The boot is definitely the same.
You need this part and then the net to fit it; https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2013-BMW-...item5b4420dc4a This is one with the net although in the USA https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-F32-4...YAAOSwsFpaMDf7

Won't it fit under the boot floor? A 13.3" one in a sleeve does...

No, no storage option. But I have just realised I've been robbed by the dealer. My Windbreak isn't behind the rear seats! FFS!!

Sorry - only now realised you have a convertible. So ignore what I said about boot liners!

That's good to know. 330d boot floor same as 4-series and hence M4.

Sorry, just seen your post now.
Glad you’ve sorted it, I just dropped the rear seats and the back bit came out easily Che

Cool and that link about for the insert definitely fits the F82 - I.e is it the same as normal 4 series?
