If not, I guess it just goes to show you learn something new everyday (like me).

Default Are you referring to the compartment in the rear hatch? Isn't that for the

safety triangle that Audi *used* to provide in US cars?

Default il309, How was your experience with Hoehn?

il309 how was your experience with Hoehn? Did you get a discount on the car? Who was your sales person? I had a terrific interaction with Gabby Engel but they did not have the inventory I was looking for...

Great experience. Enough to go back for a second time. Always use the internet sales dept for best price and no haggle. Had to wait over 2 months for special order, but it was worth the wait.

Was anybody able to fit the safety triangle in that space? I ordered a safety triangle, but it was too big to fit in that space.

Default Re: US version

Maybe Jusforfun can purchase a few European models and sell them to those who are interested in purchasing one. Could it be that the dimensions of the space is different in the US models and the European models? I just placed mine in the storage compartment above the spare tire, but I would like to purchase a triangle that fits in its dedicated location. Would somebody with the European version of the triangle post the measurements? Height, width and depth? If it is smaller than the triangle that we have, maybe we can figure out where we can purchase the European version.
