Golf R Observations and Questions

Looked under the boot cover tonight, realised there was a blank spot - am I missing a spare tool?

Yes the optional Dopple fauster is supposed to be there normally however our cars are designated 'Hot Climate' so typically they come without it. I think you can buy them online still.

You're not missing anything. Buggered if I know what that space is for though. Compressor maybe?

Something for another market (country) probably

Not sure what is 'supposed' to go there but I use that spot for the tow hook.

euro style tow bar ball thingy

Its not fitted because the R has its exhaust in the way! Plus the boot floor is different to the standard golf due to the diff so it probably has no fitting for the tow ball anyway. The foam tool holder is just a generic piece of foam across all models.
Do what I did, find a usefull tool and use that spot to keep it in the car. I have even fitted jumper leads into mine!

lol thanks all for putting my mind at ease- I'm sure I'll figure out some sort of use for the spot
