Default Is this normal? Or not supposed to happen?

I have a new 2002. The car runs great, and I'm in love with it. I can even fit someone in the back!

But I was wondering, everytime I move the front seats up to let someone sit in the back, the front seat bolsters gets "squeezed" by the metal bars next to the AC, screwing up the leather. And when I move the seats back to their normal position, the leather is wrinkled excessively, and the padding compromised. It doesn't look very good, and over time could damage the seat. Is this normal?

Default Two solutions

1. Go get a roadster
2. Don't punish anyone by making them get in the back.

You make him sit back there?!? How? You have a gun? Nobody that tall goes there voluntarily, I say!

I think the manual says no one taller than 4' 11" should sit back there

Default Or he will walk to home for 5 kms ;-) ( they are two.One to the pass.seat one to the back )

Some days I go to court with the A3 if it's available ( wife drives A3). But if I get the TT I have to take these two guys to their homes.I sure do not like the guy in the back seat squizzing but he is a friend ! I carry him , he does not blocks me ;-))

Take care Pete.
