Re: Disable passenger airbag without switch

It's an interesting point as I hadn't considered the fact that there's isofix in the back but not in the front.

Re: Disable passenger airbag without switch

It's really poor by VW in my opinion. If you buy their standard spec GTI and then circumstances change and you need to buy a car seat, you can't put it in the front, which with a young baby, makes the car unusable.

Looks like we'll soon be gti owners! :D

Boot space in the 6C GTI

Hi all,

I'm almost ready to purchase a brand new GTI but there is one thing that is bugging me - the reduced boot space in the GTI over other Polos.

I know that it's nice to ...
