Probably won't be able to sit in the front with a TT. The back seats are pretty awful and almost pointless.

Cheers, I wasn't sure. Nae good for my purposes then! Shame as they are really nice but having said that, even with the 225 I'd be giving up a big dollop of torque over the Saab, which I'd really miss.

Saab is weightier and bendy than the TT though. Plus the quattro gets the power down on the road extremely well.

I'm planning on going to one of retroshite's meets in the future. I'll give you a shot of it then.

My 10 year old's been in the back a few times with no complaints and she's tall for her age.
The boot is rather large imo too.

Changed the dipstick tube today. What a fuck on for a five minute job. This trim piece needs to come out and it's held in with two philips screws which were rusted in. I ended up having do drill the bastards out.

The old dipstick tube was brittle as and just kept cracking and falling to bits as I pulled it out. Fitted the new one easy enough but that trim bit is just rested on in the photo. It now lives in the boot for now. When it's no pissing down I drill the remainder and just fit two bolts instead.
