Does the A6 C7 Avant come with the dog net in the boot shelf as standard?

Hi everyone! New to this forum.. Just made a purchase on a new A6 Avant s-line 2.0tdi, which is currently on build week 2. The only add-on is front heated seats. Q.Don't know what the correct name for it is but does the new Avant models come with a dog net as standard, the one where you lift it up from the boot shelf and locks in the roof. (See Pic).Thanks in adavnce.Lloyd

Should do yes....but it's not a dog net....and shouldn't be used as such. The dog can get in to the cabin round the edge of the net...there is a large gap either side.
It's actually called a load retention net and is designed to stop a boot load of luggage smacking you in the back of the head in the event of an accident!

I've done thousands of miles with my collie in the boot with the net, it is perfectly suitable, he could squeeze round the sides if he really wanted to, but he never has tried and it would definitely stop him coming forward in an accident. Depends on the behaviour of the dog I suppose.
