A bonnet fits inside a tourer but not an Insignia estate ..

A front door will even fit in the boot of a saloon with rear seats down obviously
but they are very heavy though

I got front door easily into back of Hyundai i10. The i10 would probably then go in back of tourer.

Yes you can fit every body panel on our cars in the back of your tourer. I usually take a few old quilts to wrap the panels in to keep them from getting scratched or damaged.

It did easily fit inside without any issues. Door now fitted to the car and looking much better.

Old door stripped of parts and now left on my drive for the delight of our local scrapman
