How does Schedoni luggage fit in a Mondial T?

I haven’t heard back from Schedoni yet. I asked their sales & marketing dept if they had any historical documents/photos, like with some of the other Ferrari models.

The trunk seems to be the tricky part. The duffel bag certainly fits there. I can’t see where the shoe bag would fit anywhere else but in the trunk. But the space in between the two is too tight for the Pilot’s briefcase. Hmmmm….

the remaining suitcases obviously go on the folded-down rear seats

 

You don't have a spare tire in your T, correct? I think some of it goes in the frunk? I have Alberto's book on Schedoni and there are no pictures of how it fits. Only pictures of the complete set.

Correct, I don’t have a spare… But that’s where the tool kit, sun shade and my aftermarket car cover goes!

I heard back from Schedoni yesterday and this is what they wrote (which also has some intriguing information too!):

“
Good morning Mr. Rychel,

I hope this message finds you well.

I am Franceska, Barbara’s colleague and I’m writing on her behalf.

Regarding the interior lining there’s not too much to do, at that time Ferrari was asking us to use this type of material which was washable as it had a layer of natural rubber (lattice) on its surface. Unfortunately, with the passing of time the surface deteriorates.

However, we are pleased to announce that we are working on a new project, “Programma Schedoni Rinnova”, a dedicated renovation and certification service. This initiative will allow us to refurbish original Schedoni luggage sets using authentic materials, providing a way for owners to preserve and restore their unique pieces with full respect to their heritage.

If “Programma Schedoni Rinnova”, interest to you, let’s ketch (sic) up in May/June 2026 for further details and booking information.

In the meantime, please find attached an archive picture illustrating the arrangement of the Mondial T luggage set in the rear trunk.

Additionally, we have included a picture of the individual piece, which is ideally intended to be placed in the front trunk. Should there not be enough space available, it can alternatively be positioned behind the seat.

Thank you for reaching out to us, we trust the information supplied has been sufficiently detailed and useful in meeting your needs.

We remain at your full disposal for any further questions or assistance you may require.

Best regards,



Franceska Cina
PA to Mr. Simone Schedoni
SCHEDONI SRL “

Thing is, the indicated pieces (in a PDF format) isn’t anywhere near capable of fitting in the trunk! Not even close! Since you mentioned they came from Germany, maybe they’re sized for a Euro car trunk?… But I can’t see how the cars are different. By this time, Ferraris were built to meet all market requirements.

If Ferrari asked them to use a washable lining, they should have used one which didn't fall apart, like other Italian manufacturers.

In fact, before the interior that falls apart they had used one which was washable and doesn't fall apart.

And after the interior which falls apart, they used one which was not washable and still fell apart, albeit in different ways.

They've been talking about this for at least a year already.
You can be sure of one thing - it will cost more than buying another set.

Like Classiche it will squeeze more € for some paperwork. Hopefully authentic materials means not original.

The PDF trunk pics are from a 3.2 Mondial.

There are differences between EU/US/CH/SA etc cars. May affect the trunk depth as it did on other Mondials and 308's.

 

I posted the question in Alberto's Schedoni luggage thread.

The PDF is indeed a copy of the 3.2 series but they amended it by including the second photo of the “T” bags and numbering them. Although the overall shape/size doesn’t seem to match the 3.2 series. I have only seen a few sets of “T” luggage for sale before and what I have here is a proper set.

The Mondial T should be a universal market car as by this time, most jurisdictions required emissions control so cats needed to be designed into place. Only a few Euro countries was it an option with “test pipes”. But the structure/chassis was the same. This should not have changed the floor depth….

We will keep the comments about these “restoration services” to ourselves! Ha! To be honest, a quote I got from a local leather repair shop here in Vancouver would cost me $10K CAD, labor and taxes included. It would be cheaper for me to fly to the Philippines, Vietnam or Indonesia, take the luggage with me as cargo, have an awesome 14 day vacation, have the bags re-lined there and come back home for a fraction of that quote!

 

Can you fit any of the suitcases in the trunk by lying them flat - bottom facing the front or rear of the car?

 

FYI, I bought and ultlimently sold a five piece set that was correct for my 3.2, but it was for a Euro car without the cat and a deeper trunk, so it was too tall for my US model with the cat and 2" shallower trunk. Sent that set back to a guy in Europe.

This is the factory brochure cards showing the T set, with part numbers - one for each color and either coupe or convertible! Maybe this is the Coupe luggage?....

 

This is interesting, the section of the chassis that is fixed as a part of the bodywork - and which defines the shape of the trunk (floor and firewall), is the same part number for both Coupe & Cabriolet and also looks to be valid for different markets too, including the USA...

The cabriolet set is also 6 piece so the difference could be the height of the bags.

EU coupe vs US cab

The trunk on the T is actually shorter front to back by about 3 in or so because of the electronics hidden behind a panel at the front that the 3.2 does not have.
This should really be a new thread, instead of letting it be buried in the for sale section. Needs to be in the Mondial section.
Alden

 

That will need to be done by one of the moderators here….

And you’re correct about the trunk firewall as it’s a fold-down panel hiding the Motronic ECUs.

 

The EU coupe seems to be missing the carpet-covered panel hiding the antenna motor. This is completely covered up in my car

 

Take a look at the last few posts in my for sale ad ad where Peter, the guy who bought my set, is asking questions and has some information from Schedoni about how this luggage fits in a Mondial T, anyone else have any more information about this?

Dear Alden,

I asked myself the same question after buying a set of luggage for my cabrio (I almost bought yours, but you beat me to it with the German seller!). But in the end, the black set that I found goes better with my rosso / nero convertible.
I tried several combinations and finally decided that the shoe box and the long bag fit in the trunk. The two small square suitcases go on the folded rear seats and the large rectangular suitcase goes in the front trunk where the spare tire is usually stored.
Unfortunately, I didn't take any photos with all the luggage in place because I tried many different combinations, but this seems to be the best fit. Since I have a convertible, I shouldn't have the attaché case.

This set of luggage is so rare, it's a fascinating subject!

Considering that all of the Schedoni luggage for our cars seem to be well fitted, this set seems to stand out in that it's not that well thought out. Yeah, you can shoehorn it in here and there, but it doesn't fit precisely like other sets that we've all seen.??
It seems that Shedoni really didn't think this through very well, they don't really even provide any good information about fitment. Or there's some other information that we don't understand. Hence the purpose of this thread. Trying to help Peter fit the luggage into his car that I sold him!
If you read the tail end of the for sale thread and the responses from Schedoni, they really don't make sense either. Also, I did not know that there were separate part numbers for the sets for the cabriolet and the coup.
When I started this journey, I also did not know that the sets for European cars were taller than the ones for us cars. I don't think there may be any us sets available to fit our cars here. Unicorns?
Alden

 

Here's a couple of examples. Is the first one of Mondial T? The second is a 3.2 set.
