Is the Harry Metcalfe gently close and double handed push to close the preferred technique?
I was told after my test drive at Lotus Essex to use both hands and close firmly from 50cm/2ft. Worked fine there.It doesn't work on my car.

Yes, mine requires quite a slam to close. The push on the boot technique doesn’t feel good 😬I'm a "drop it / hoik it from about six inches away" man myself... pressing down on it feels like it would be more likely to cause damage than letting it shut by its own weight (from a small height). That's what I did with the test drive vehicle anyway...
I looked up in the owners manual and they suggest a variation on the HM techniqueWorks from 25/30 cm too. It's more gentle. But the Harry's technique doesn't work on my car.
A slam? Or a firm push down?I was told after my test drive at Lotus Essex to use both hands and close firmly from 50cm/2ft. Worked fine there.
The latter. Firm push down, but it may have been just that car.A slam? Or a firm push down?
It won't be full of water when you've just opened it, but you're rear storage and engine will be 😂When it’s full of water, what technique is used?
Depends on how much water is trapped inside the plastic, but you should need less force...When it’s full of water, what technique is used?
Designed to be opened halfway so the rainwater drains into the channel before opening fullyHarry's demonstration of the water dispersal from the tailgate was interesting, a little more r&d might have reduced the pooling issue
