I have the same space saver and I can report it does fit. I jacked up the car and fitted it to make sure.

We lost power early Thursday morning and got it back Saturday afternoon. So a total of around 60 hours out, and used V2L for that time to run fridge, lights, kettle, toaster, microwave and phone chargers. Battery went from 87% to 67% over that time so we still had plenty in reserve if it had...

I can report I bought an ex Golf TSI 2012 space saver via Marketplace for AU$50 and it fits my Essence 64 (Trophy ER?) both front and back. It is a 125/70R18 which gives it a slightly smaller diameter than the original 235/45R18s but would be fine for low speed and low distance use. There is...
