onboard water tank

If there's not a circular bladder for the spare wheel well, this could sit on the floor in the cargo area?

4WD Water Tank - 80L
The dimensions are:
Width: 805mm
Height: 120mm
Length: 1070mm

Can anyone tell me if this will fit in a L322?
I cant measure mine is in the hospital getting a new Auto installed ($5,500.......)

Thanks

Surely a bladder the same shape as a tire tube would fit in perfectly and be nice and low and out of the way....
If it was just me Id fill up a tyre tube, but SWMBO would complain about the rubber taste:D

I could put the spare on the roof rack and this would be perfect....
Ive looked and cant find one, if anyone knows of one, let me know please!

If your going to use a bladder in the spare wheel well, the shape does not matter you just fill it to expand to fill the space, It just means that you may have to buy a bladder that is a bit bigger than the amount of water that you can put into it. I used one of these

I plumbed two hoses to the inlet/outlet ports, that way I could fill the bladder or take some water by just pulling the appropriate hose out of the car, saved on spills ( not that the defender has carpets:p)

But this is all you probably need if you're prepared to drink from an inner tube

Harlie will come up with something a bit neater.

Just need to locate a tank, the pump and a heat exchanger and you can have a warm shower.

They have a vid of the installation and typical uses here:
In Vehicle Shower Kit with Blue Heat Exchanger

Thanks, yeah you're probably right about any shape fitting in the wheel space.

I already have one of those heat exchangers fitted to the L322, so thats why Im looking for a good water storage onboard. Warm showers while camping:cool:

Thanks for the thoughts on the square flexitank.

I measure 1050 across between the wheels and just under 1m front to back

What Slug says about the bladder is right. For the boat, I just boxed up available space and let the bladder push out against the sides. 200L bladder is holding about 160L. In the wheel well you have the compressor, wouldn't want to block off air flow for cooling.
