Default S 2 tailgate

Hi,

Prob a silly qestion, but I'm hopefully getting a new tailgate this weekend. Will it fit into the back of a 52 plate mondeo hatch? i'll obv fold back seats down.

Cheers.

Will do mate. Its still on the car at the min, but i'll have a good measure tonight. I'm sure that it will go, just don't wanna get there and have to strap it to the roof or summat!!!

On a side note, is it legal to drive down m'way with boot open, but tied closed (if you know what i mean!!)?
