Easy enough to put one in though.
Shame it wasn't available in our hatches...

Just be careful of the feed wire power capacity for your planned power drain.........

I was sure I read in the manual that there is a 12V outlet in the boot only to find there wasn't when I looked.

yes in the owners book there is a picture of one in the boot but it doesn't state for which model
Just installed My 12volt power socket, I put it on the LHS just above the opening to where the rear fuses are. ran a wire to No6 ,put in a 15amp fuse . The fuse box will just clip out ( both the white & black come out together ) which makes it easy to work on
