Obviously done by someone that does not know TTs
1. Contrary to what he said, all 1.8L Mk 1 TT did have a compact spare. I believe the 3.2 and TTRS versions did not.
2. There is no inflatable spare that fits in the wheel well of a Mk 2

Also, there has been one spare combo that does fit. Took a lot of time digging for across various forums, but there is 1. If I come across it again, I'll post it.
Thanks for the feedback!

I've been exploring this for years and never seen one
There is a blow-up spare that works for the Mk 2 size and bolt pattern but it does not fit in the well. I've seen an old British TT forum post of a guy who carved up his well and added a layer of plywood on top to fit a compact spare. However, European models do not have the hump in the middle of the well that looks like where a spare might attach. So doing what the Brit did will not work unless you cut out the bump which is not recommended since you are cutting into the frame.
