Do you have dogs - if so, how much space is there in the back for your mutt(s)?

Yes, Plenty for my 40Kg Lab... and I used to get him and a border collie in the back of my Edition 30 which had a slightly smaller boot, no problems...

As stated, depends on the size of your dog(s)...

Excellent replies, thanks all!

and thanks for the pic of the little (?!) fella in the boot.

This might all go some way towards reassuring my wife we should get a GTI after all. (Test drove an Octavia vRS Estate on the weekend … not the same thing at all, although there is tons of space in the back.)

Forgot to say, we have two dogs - a golden retriever and a collie-cross who is small, about terrier-size.

i think the Octavia is a great car sometimes think that is what I should of got saying all that you have described you 2 woofers and I think they will fit quite happily in the back of the golf not a problem

Charlie, going by the one we drove, you're much better off in the Golf - our demo Octavia had many rattles and they all seem to have a really uncomfortable boom in the cabin at slow speeds. You know the pressure on your eardrums you sometimes get if driving with the back window open? Like that …  :sick:
