Would really appreciate some advice please. I know that Kodiaq not available in 5 seat SE L, but having looked at 7 seat (back seats would never be used as 3 large teenage boys) the boot space taken up by the 2 unused seats is ridiculous. I like some of the SE L extras but not all. Would it be a sensible compromise to order an SE and just add the extra few SE L extras instead. If we opted for the space saver spare, would that reduce the boot space by much? 
 

Looking at 2.0 DSG 150 

 

Thank you 

There’s actually not much difference in load space between a 5 seater with spare wheel and a 7 seater.

The SE spec is pretty sparse, and you cannot add LED headlights that are standard on the SEL.

Thank you, I just saw a 7 seater with third row in floor today, and the boot looked so small I thought, and we just don’t need the 7 seats. But I do like the SE L spec. So hard to know what to do!
