lol, the owner's manual is in the trunk? because that makes as much sense as having a deck in your glovebox.

It hardly needs a manual. Pretty much self-explanatory - even the center console:

I like the interior, it's got an old-world kind of feel to it. You know, looking at that interior, that this could only be an Aston or a Jag. Not a fan of that wheel either, looks like typical Ford parts-bin garbage that they've tried to unsuccessfully cover up.

I remember seeing a car, I think it was a Rolls, that in the door jamb was a round button. Pressing it would cause an umbrella to come out of it. Pretty sweet.

I keep my owner's manual in the trunk, next to the spare tire. VW has a slot in the glovebox for it but the owner's manual got bigger between 2002 and 2004 and it doesn't fit there

^^^I think you'd have to add a zero to that sum.
In 2000, the asking price for the optional first aid kit was CHF 650.00 I mean, what does it comprise? Your own nurse?! ![]() |

You know, it's a fantastic looking car. I really do like it.
But I hate to be the one saying it bluntly- the interior leaves too much to be desired for a car of this caliber, IMO. The way I look at it- it appears as an interior that could be found in a 99' ford contour (mondeo) but covered in excessive wood and leather. Even the steering wheel, while an expensive option and somewhat 'sportier', looks completely out of place. |

Ah. Then buy a service manual. I don't think that exists either, lol. Whenever I go to the dealership, the "Make/Model/Trim/Options" section of the bill/work receipt always says the following, and apparently the associated service manual for anything to do with the parts that aren't GTI-related is that of the A3 3.2L afaik... anyway: Year: 2008 Make: Volkswagen Model: GTI Trim: n/a Options: - 2.0T FSI Delete - 4Motion - 3.2 VR6 ... I shit you not. VWoA identifies my car as a GTI with an engine and AWD as options. |
