:cry: Now lockdown is over I've bitten the bullet and ordered a Race Blue Karoq 2.0TSI 4x4 DSG! It's a factory order and likely to be a MY21 car and delivered in September. I've added a heated windscreen & steering wheel, virtual display, progressive steering/DCC (to ensure the bigger wheels are...

To answer my own question, from elsewhere it looks like the boot floor always sits directly on the spare wheel, so the floor is lower on the narrow spare and gives more boot space above it, but no extra room below it!

Hi all, I had an Octavia L&K diesel for some years, then switched back to VW (first a Golf Plus and now a Golf SV (nee Sportsvan). As this is now 5 years old I'm looking at possible replacements, and a Karoq Edition 1.5TSI DSG is high on my shortlist. I was considering a Kodiaq but can't really ...
