Hatch Boo Boo

I am not sure if this has been covered before (I did a search but did not come up with anything) Second day of ownership of Candy White 6 sp manual RS and loving every minute....well almost. There were a few anxious seconds when opening the hatch in the garage and finding the spoiler hitting the garage door when the hatch is fully open

. No damage

but definitely something to watch out for especially for those who are used to a normal bootlid.

Cheers

Yeah I kinda mentioned in another post, I did that the first day we got our 6 hatch....so was careful with this one....and then did the stupid thing with the wipers.

LOL I just hit my head today in the damn thing, bruised my left side of my forehead. Thought I had a normal boot and yeah self explanatory.

ouch!

LOL....Sorry shouldn't laugh but it just conjured an image in my mind. I hope when you did it no one was looking.

They are a great car and I am sure we can forgive them for our silly mistakes.

Did that 3 times in our garage. Grrr.

We have bought our first house, and the ceiling looks lower in it, so hope we don't make the mistake again as both are hatches....in the current garage, we park so it goes in the gaps between rafters....but the new place has a lot smaller space.
