1 door has cloth trim, the other 3 have leather...

So anyway... I was just vacuuming dad's Mk VI and noticed the rear left passenger door has cloth trim on the armrest and the side panel. The car is optioned with leather and the other 3 doors have leather trim like they're supposed to.

Others with leather might want to go and inspect their door trims...

Right rear door:

Looks like the bloke working on the production line had one too many steins!

awesome QC!!
Fail.....

Haha, that's pretty funny. Maybe the door/ trim was replaced after the car was built??

This thread should be in the humour section! That is a total fail for VW ?

All we could do was laugh and wonder how it happened... Friday afternoon car perhaps? The other suggestions sound plausible too. Wonder what the dealer will have to say about it... I can't imagine it's something the pre-delivery guys would be looking for.

im guessing the 4th guy working on the door was sick on that day

LOL

True that.

The flash makes it stand out, the colour of the cloth is really similar to the leather so I'm not surprised nobody's noticed it until now... it wasn't until I went to go over it with the vacuum and touched it that I noticed it... unless you know what you're looking for you don't really notice the missing leather stitching either

First time the the interior's been cleaned and the only person to sit in the back is my 11 year old sister and there's no way she'd ever notice something like that.
