Default How very sad our Santorins had to give their lives for these tests....

But I do wonder how the A4 would have faired with the side curtain airbag system. Also, did I miss something, what in the hell is an oddments bin? Perhaps a little cubbyhole found on Euro A4s?
Further, note at the bottom where it says, and I quote, "passenger airbag and side-impact bags not fitted to test car". Hmmm, wonder why? These aren't an option on our US versions that I'm aware of.<p>~Matt
