   I recall until about the 1990s, that the spare tyre was stored upright   
   in the trunk/boot behind the wheel arch. So was quite convenient to get   
   out. But modern vehicles have it in a well, so one has to unload all the   
   crap on top of it. I guess this is due to some safety standard after   
   a steel rim went through the back seat in a crash?
