stunning

why are people hating this?!?
sooo different, and must be a serious love, as there's some coin gone towards that!

you've got an original look - forget 'what's right' and 'what's wrong'

i hate narrow mindedness!

thanks for the detailed write up, mine has just started to act up last night, swapped the climate display unit over (just to test that it wasnt the fan switches) which of course it wasnt, then checked with vag-com & it looks like i need a motor too, however a quick bang on the top of the dash &...

yes mate - looks rude!i was thinking of junking all my handles and passenger side mirror before i got my other project started and where you've first smoked your front indicators,it looks like what i was thinking of - extending my wings, and delete the indicators - putting bulbs in a drilled hole in...

MOT'd yesterday (and passed!) so a trip to Norwich this weekend - hoping to do it what's left in my tank (50 miles short of a full tank) which might be pushing it considering it's 330 miles.. trip to Norwich!??!why on earth would you want to come here?!?hahah Sounds like fun! Good luck. Matt cheers...

you're livin' the dream boys!

i've got to rebuild my engine, as my car has sat in bits for a week and a half - due to having been sent the wrong effin' cambelt kit then put the whole c11ntin' thing back together :D just trying to find my phone-usb lead, so i can put up a pic of current state of affairs!(forgot to take my camera ...

i'm amazed you need anymore power when you've got a 20 litre lump!that must be kicking out close to 1000bhp!

sorry...had to be done

gotta love them smooth bums!!

i'll keep an eye out, please post or p.m any useful tips or pics - would be very helpful

i've got exactly the same thing - you can just feel the heat coming through the vents, but the blower motor isn't working

let me know if you have any luck - a job to do when i've got my engine back together

Im not a fan of the 24s to be honest. Even though the Phaeton is a HUGE CAR i think 22s are the max for that job. I was driving my mates phaeton the other day with 20" kahns. Its easily the best car ive ever driven. If you debadged it, you could mistake it for a top spec merc! Its so decked ou...

that phaeton is gorgeous!and british how about tucking 24''s then pete?!?haha gash rims, but impressive - they should take you rim shopping( :shock: rim :shock: )mate :D http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/7041/img8390h.jpg http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/917/vwphaeton008.jpg seriously though pete...

Things is when poo like this happens, you are edge waiting for it happen again. Booze is single handedly our worst social problem. Matt agreed mate fully very sorry to hear about your car mate - it is disgusting if they discovered how to make alcohol recently, there's no way it would be legal, even...

the link is a jetta, can even see the rear lights creeping round

haha, it was a bit tongue in cheek - is that overspray on the o/s front tyre in the 1st pic?hahah i think so - it's up to almost 6 and a half grand now!he'll be gutted when he realises that someone is mugging him off!unless someone genuine is really unlucky to bid on it genuinely :shock: it's hilari...

if you've got a B5, i don't know if these will fit anyway - it says Passat 93-96

i was agreeing with you stylin about the lack ot time in a day, and yes, you have it harder than me mate - you must be constantly shattered

i'l make you a kit if you want mate, obviously an aesthetically finished one :D it'll work with any oem headunit that has the facility for an oem cd changer you just have to get the specific reader - it's brilliant, you have 6 folders of up to 99 mp3s in each (which could each be 2 hour mixes, if yo...

found this 'gem' from an vw trained mechanic in America Honestly that body style Passat is one of the worst vehicles VW has ever made. I currently own 5 Volkswagens and I've owned close to 40 but I'd never buy a B5 Passat. They have suspension problems, ABS module failure problems, sludge buildup is...
