To give you an idiea how the storage pack look.  The drawer is rather small, an A5 sized envelope does not fit.





And the Luxury Pack, for the folding mirrors.

I'm glad I didn't bother with the storage pack - from the description, I thought it would stop me putting my feet under the seat, and it looks as if I was right.  I also thought there wasn't a lot of space there, and it looks as if I was maybe right again.

I'm pleased with the folding mirrors though.  They make just that crucial bit of difference when I'm reversing into my garage.

I know DSG has made your left foot almost entirely redundant now, but you do know the other one should be on the pedals, right?  :wink: :laugh:

Well, maybe I should have said "foot".

I was also thinking about passenger comfort.

(Even with a manual car, I like to shift position and tuck my left foot under the seat on long motorway journeys.)

nice to see some pics of the options. Wouldnt bother with the storage pac. Folding mirrors are a must! How do you get them to fold?

Folding mirrors are a must! How do you get them to fold?

There's a single joystick-knob on the inside of the driver's door that does all the controls for the door mirrors.  You switch to the mirror you want to adjust, then use the knob like a joystick to get it exactly where you want it.  There's also a position that simply folds the mirrors in, just turn the switch to that when you want it to happen.  When you want them back again, turn it to the on position, and they'll return to the angles you previously set them to.
