'Help the Aged' aka Passat Estate :woowoo: it's a 20v Sport model, for collecting your pension that little bit faster.. :yesnod:
amongst other things, it has a solar sunroof - which when the car is locked / switched off, runs the interior fan when the cabin air is significantly hotter than ambient. very strange when the car starts doing things when the keys are removed. :yesnod:
oh and the glovebox is air conditioned, to keep your beer cool.

It shares the audi a4 platform, so you can have quality without everyone thinking you're a Kent. :P

Just preparing a big list of stuff to fit on Saturday, Cambelt waterpump tensioner etc..
Should be discreet comfy 200hp bargain for daily use.
Then start saving for another toy car :woo2:

well after 7 hours on the ramp it's still in bits.
previous chimps r us had stripped three of the four crank pulley bolts, so thanks :rant: and the hydraulic tensioner is kaput.. off to buy more bits on monday.
i've cleaned all parts as i went, so once reassembled it'll be factory fresh (hence the 7 hours lol)

asides that, there's not a mark underneath it. no corrosion, all paint/underseal original, genuine exhaust fitted, all suspension rubbers and cv joints perfecto. happy days. :pop:

It's a snotter. Shares the A4 platform? So do SEAT. And they're shat too.
200 HP? Are those Martian Horsepower?

Toy car? To us it's a real one in daily use.

It will be all right in the end. If it isn't all right yet, then it is not yet the end..
