Behold the Bendee Stiq EVO.
Faced with the prospect of replacing your tailgate gas struts that may well cost more than the entire value of your car?
You need a Bendee Stiq EVO. It's versatile too. Works equally well with bonnets. Only £99.99
Mercedes, BMW and Audi owners may prefer the Bendee Stiq EVO Deluxe. £199.99
You may think the Bendee Stiq was dreamt up by some mountain bikers who were lost in the woods unable to make a decision as to which trail to follow and you would be partially correct.
However extensive field testing with the Bendee Stiq EVO guarantees no more forehead to tailgate collisions.

I can't complain really, it owes me nothing. Having the Bendee Stiq Evo in the boot more than doubles it's value.
A left hand drive version will shortly be available for export.
Bendee Stiq EVO is biodegradable and can be used in emergencies for kindling. Beware of imitations.
Objection! That's a bodge, not a botch. Botching means doing something badly, bodging means doing something wrong, well.
what you want is a bungee running from the radiator grill over the roof and latched on to the lip of the tailgate
Think how exciting it'll be every time you fit or remove it 😀
Audi just called. They want it.
Vorspung Tech Stiq.
"birch" tech stiq, surely ?

Meh, I'm holding out for the Evo Pro version.
Is it available in Enduro colours for those crazy Europeans?
I used the Compact version - the Cunning Old Broom Leverage EVO for a few months. It has the benefit of fitting in a Touran boot without resort to bending, and has better performance in windy conditions.
