Maynard,
I've both seen the seat, and used it several times, both sitting in it, and
"flipping" it away. When I was in the Army, we regularly drove a 91 EV with this
seat. Easy to maneuver, and gets just that wee bit more room to pass going into the
rear seat. It is still as good as any other rear seat. There is a pic of it at VWs
website: http://www.vwn.de/uk/commercial/tr/tr_kombi.html but that is only in the
upright position. Unfortunately, I do not have any seat for sale, but it shouldn't
be too difficult to locate one somewhere in Europe, I guess.
