As far as I know the "jump seats" are standard on the newer styled 
Audi wagons.  I don't remember the year the change took place, but 
the newer cars are easily spotted as they have a more squared-off
tail than the "extended hatchback" look of the older Avant.  I've 
only seen one, and that was at the San Francisco Int'l Auto Show a 
few years back, but my recollection was that the jump seat faced 
backward.  I know that the '89 was the old style, and I think the
'90 was as well.  You may be talking about a '91 or '92.
