I believe VW do their own hot dogs... unsure how well they would travel.

What random OEM VW stuff have you come across?

I actually work at a main dealer and the crap I've accumulated over the years is fantastic! I've got a GTI pillow and mug, genuine VW bath towels, pens, ties, cufflinks, shirts, socks, spare wheel set covers and no doubt more crud I've forgotten about

So basically VW are bagging up old clothes from a recycling centre and selling them as rags.  Mopping up oil spills with someone's old pants adds a certain something to the job I guess.

I used to think VW pens and umbrellas were pretty naff, but that takes the biscuit  :grin:

No pants at all!
Current bail of rags so far seems to be a lot of dish cloths, in fact they are really nice linen that would put the stuff we have to shame - probably hotel ware... but with stains.
The previous bail lasted me years, brand new cloths sliced up - I seem to recall finding a rag with a Gant label on it - high end stuff

It's actually a good idea and very 'eco' minded of VW to do that, in all seriousness!  I remember VW making a big thing about their interiors being made of recycled stuff some years ago.  So again, we're probably sitting on someone's old sofa and steering with someone's old leather bondage gear  :grin:
