What are the benefits of Vauxhall boot liners?
The Vauxhall brand has produced some of the most sought-after hatchbacks and SUVs. The Vauxhall Astra is a good choice for a family car, with a boot space ranging from 422 to 1,389 litres, depending on whether the seats are down. Consider a protective boot liner that securely fits on the boot floor and down the back of the rear seats to safeguard this large and invaluable area.
These boot covers and liners are a barrier, ensuring your Vauxhall car interior stays clean and easy to maintain. Benefits of a boot liner for your Vauxhall include:
Protection against mud, dirt and spills: Items, such as muddy boots and wet sports or camping gear, can quickly cause the boot to become dirty and difficult to clean. A boot liner provides protection against daily wear and tear, especially when travelling with large or muddy equipment.
Helps maintain the Vauxhall’s value: Maintaining the value of your Vauxhall is essential if you plan on selling in the future. A well-maintained car, free from damage and excessive wear, will fetch a higher price on the resale market.
Travelling with dogs: A boot liner is a practical necessity for dog owners. Dogs can track dirt, leave hair and cause scratches whilst travelling, all causing damage to your Vauxhall interior. Vauxhall boot liners are often durable, waterproof, and made of an anti-slip material to provide your pet with a more comfortable ride. However, this varies depending on the material and boot liner type.

Comparing the different Vauxhall boot liner types
If you are looking to protect your Vauxhall’s boot and interiors, consider a boot liner. There are various options to choose from, which vary in their features and level of protection. Make sure you consider the key features that will best benefit you, such as the cost, suitability for dogs, and material.
Universal boot liners: These are often designed to fit a wide variety of vehicles, not necessarily a Vauxhall. They are a cost-effective and expendable choice for Vauxhall drivers who only require a boot liner for singular use.
Vauxhall-manufactured: Manufacturer-made boot liners often come as a free extra when buying a new vehicle. Boot liners from Vauxhall offer a snug fit and are ideal for drivers looking for official branding. Options for older Vauxhall models may not be available.
Custom-made: Tailored boot liners provide ultimate protection and are designed to meet the exact model and year of a Vauxhall. These are ideal for Vauxhall drivers who often use their boot and want an exact fit, particularly for travelling with dogs.

Choosing Vauxhall boot liner accessories for your needs
With your tailored boot liner, there are optional extras and accessories available that offer additional protection and convenience, complementing your boot liner perfectly.
Browse our range of optional accessories that work in tandem with a Vauxhall boot liner below:
Bumper flap: A bumper flap is an excellent addition if you frequently load and unload heavy or bulky items. It provides a protective cover over the bumper, preventing scratches and scuffs. A bumper flap may also be beneficial for SUV models with a large bumper, such as the Vauxhall Mokka and Grandland.
Rear seat flap: A rear seat flap ensures that the backs of the seats are also protected from dirt, spills, and scratches. This is beneficial for travelling with muddy and messy items, like camping, outdoor or gardening gear.
Tailgate cover: A tailgate cover protects the inside of the boot door from scratches and wear, which can be particularly helpful if you own a dog that jumps in and out of the car.
