I have a kangoo with 6 foot(when closed) trad poles and they go in, but they extend into the front compartment over the front seat, so if it has been all panelled of between the back and front compartment the short answer would be no.

One of my vans is a Berlingo. I can get my 6 foot pole in but it goes over the seats, its not a problem.
I have a 500 lt upright tank behind the seats so rest the poles on that, I have a bungy cord across the back which holds the brush end up and stops them dancing around the van, works great and very fast when arriving at jobs.
Oh and before anyone comments... Yes I am aware if I fill my tank I am on my weight limit.  ;D

I can't wait to get a Berlingo (car version), that way I can get the sprogg's off to school, then crack on with the day's work. Pukka little motor. ;D ;) ;D

Remember that the Multispace doesn't have the payload that the van has - comfort for passengers being the reason. If I recall the 'older' model was 450kgs.

I have the older shape car, 350 or 400L tank (forgotten the actual size but could look it up) It only just fits in the boot area and when full takes the weight right up to the legal limit with 1 Person in. Modular poles above your head on racking.

Is that the legal limit for the max gross weight, or the legal limit for the max axel weight. 350l in the boot space may well put you over the limit for the axel weight .................... but I could be wrong on that, you would have to check the hand book.

Good point, I had it on and off the weighbridge loads of times, Its out of the car till spring so cannot help till its back in, end of the month.
It was very close,I think it may have been with it in.
