Re: need help to value mk2 passat

gazwould you are ignorant, arrogant and just plain wrong. you clearly dont understand how a car changes value over the years.
mk1s are often worth 2 or 3 thousand now and mk2s sometimes reach over 1000. this car in question sounds like it is worth about 750.

Re: 88 passat progress update

looks great, small bumpers are much better. the big side trim might not suit it now. maybe just a pinstripe down the side?

Re: late b2 front grill badge?

the later badge is much bigger too isnt it? like i said, go down your local scrapyard and see if it is the same as a golf/polo/passat. anything from the 1990s
