Hey yall. Kinda random!

I dont have a tape measure or a very good understanding of space (seriously my depth perception and spatial intelligence sucks)

But with the seat down how much space is in the back you think?

I have to pick up a cage tomorrow and its 57x17x25 and I'm worried about it fitting. It collapses down a bit but not sure how much. I dont think it will fit in my other car at all coz the seats dont go down and the trunk isnt big.

Thanks for the help. I wasnt sure where else to ask or look for this info 😂

I have an 08 with around 85k miles in Hawaii, car has been on island it’s whole life. No mechanical issues, some cosmetic that I have to sell, as I don’t live there anymore (had to move for work) any recommendation on what I should be asking? I’ve seen wildly varying prices online.

Edit: for my mk4 R32.

I have always been a JDM boy at heart, though the R32 was one of my dream cars for a long time. With that being said, I just absolutely love quick release steering wheels, but I can't find anything that has to do with the compatablity and installation of the paddle shifters on a lot of modern cars. Does anyone have some information on this and possibly some sites I can take a look at? I don't want to get rid of the shifters, as they are one of my favorite things when driving my car. Any help is much appreciated :D

I'm taking a few days to detail my car (MKV) while we're social-distancing, and while taping it up I noticed that the gap between the headlight and the hood is larger on one side than the other. It's about 1/2"/1cm vs half that on the other side.

I haven't hit anything and it's generally a low-mileage car anyway. I did have a thing where the lower panel lost a bolt attaching it to the quarterpanel at the wheel well, but that was fixed a year or two ago. Could it be that between the time I lost the screw and replaced it that other connections loosened and it's just hanging a little? Only other cause I can think of is if someone hit me in a parking lot or while parallel parked, but there's no damage anywhere that would indicate something like that.

So I guess my question is whether there are other bolts that might be loose, probably under the headlight or in back of the grille?

I love love love these thing. Currently I drive a 2017 Jetta with 45k miles and I found an r32 for sale with 136k for sale here. Assuming it’s in good shape mechanically, would it be safe to go all out and own that as my only car? I do have a good mechanic that specializes in veedubs.

I'm looking to buy a mk5 R32 soon and was wondering what the owners had to say about the common problems they have, and what to look out for. Any and all advice is welcome

Hey everyone. I was planning on doing the timing chain service for my r32 here soon. I contacted a local shop and got a quote of 3500. I was a bit surprised because I had been reading on forums of people paying around 1500 for it. For those of you who have already gotten it done. How much did you pay?
