you don't need a spare or foam, just if you don't and get a puncture at 1 in the morning in the middel of nowhere you can garantee that your phone is flat or has no signal and it'll be raining.   

if spare is there it has to be legal 
all the VW's have gone bar 1.

Wait!

A tester I know says he needs to have access to the rear floor (corrosion etc)  you could view from the back seats, just depends how agreeable your tester is.

asked our guys at work ref the spare tyre question...

apparently they will only check the spare if it is easily accessible. even so, if it is flat/bald it becomes an advisory, NOT a failure.


I don't think a semi will give the same results
