Quick question, will a full-size spare wheel fit correctly in a J11?

No

It will go in the spare wheel well but it won’t fit flush and will mean removal of the false floor in the boot

Turvey, firstly welcome to the Forum. If you play around with the “Search” Area you should find information on this subject as the attached example. As Mike has mentioned you do loose a lot of space with a Full Size Wheel. We have had the Space Saver Wheel since our QQ was New 2014 and never needed to use it yet. With this Set Up it does give you additional Space below the Board and Flexible Cover and you can stick your Bits & Pieces in and around the Wheel - Dave 😉

This is our QQ J11A for example :

Thank you Mike and Dave for your replies 👍

We've got a full-size spare, that I've had to use a couple of times, in our 2010 QQ and we're looking at getting a 2015ish replacement.

I would be willing to lose a bit of boot space for the peace of mind having a spare wheel would give, don't like the gunk option, so I suppose a space saver would be a compromise but they are dear and I've already got a full-size.

Now, just to find the right spec car in our price range in the correct colour within our 'local' area 🤔

Sorry to go off topic guys...but I see you have two different size towing eyes, Dave...are they Front / Back specific?

I just have the longer version that came with the car.

Weasel, correct we have the two options the longer version is normally for the front due to the long reach and the shorter version obviously for the back, both recently greased - Dave 😏
