Bob, 
  Well, I once made the same mistake myself, so I figured I'd point out 
your understandible mistake.  Ur-quattros are simply Hatchback 
impersonators. Right down to that line that goes up and arond the top 
window immitating the edge of a hatch.  The rear window is in fact fixed. 
The car has a legitmate (but somewhat small) trunk. The rear deck is 
hinged at the bottom edge of the window and has a proficiency for wearing 
out gas lift struts and, subsequently, owner's arm muscles...
