m reluctantly considering parting with my B2 Hatchback affectionately known as Dorothy. I have owned Dorothy for a good many years but unfortunately she has stood unused now for several years. I will have to dig the paperwork out but from memory Im the third owner and it had a full VAG service histo...

I've been saying it for a long time but this really has to go now. I've got my beloved old TD estate that screwed, in bits and has to go. The engines long gone but I do have another good 1.6TD lump I had ready to put in it. Most the panels are rough and the interior is shabby but it may wield a few ...

Funnily enough I have two estate towbars if you are still looking. One a genuine VAG one fitted to a scrapper and an after market one ready to go! Call me on 07974257388 if your interested. The scrapper has got to go soon so act fast, in fact if you want a few bits bring some tools along and go larg...

Unfortunately due to loss of my workshop I've had to reduce my collection. Some cars have already gone I've had to scrap some but I have a 1987 B2 Topic Hatchback that I think is too good to scrap or break although she does require some work. I've had to move her from her dry storage and now shes is...

My b2 collection is located less than ten miles from Northampton if anyone needs anything, obviously I could post smaller items if required.

After much time avoiding the inevitable my collection of vehicles has now outgrown both my space and my girlfriends patience. I have ten at the moment so cant really tell her to stop been silly! Im having a big push to clear out the newer stuff and the junk but Im insisting that I keep my beloved B2...

I maybe able to help with everything you said you want if you still need the bits? Its a tough decision but one of my three B2's has got to go and Im torn to which one but I think its best to break one for the survival of the species if you know what I mean. I have narrowed it down to either my GL5 ...

My B2 always has a water feature inside unless Im going up hill and it all drains out the holes in the rear floor pans butt I love it all the same! I have moss growing on my carpets as well as a hole in one of my pistons!

Is anyone out there interested in owning an original set of GL5 alloys? My spares car has a good set on it and Im never going to use them on my base model Turbo Diesel as I like it looking bog basic so if anyones interested please get in touch.

Do you still need a rear bumper mate? I cant promise but I maybe able to get my hands on one.

I will have to take a better look next week but from memory the bonnet is rust and dent free and Im sure the bumpers are not colour coded or anything but not sure if they have any scuffs or anything, will take a look then update maybe with some pictures. The car is currently near Daventry, Northants.

Im reluctantly having to have a bit of a clear out as my fleet of dubs has got to big to manage. I have a 1993 (approx) B3 saloon which is MOT'd but not taxed. Think its got nine months ticket left on it and is pretty much ready to go but its a boring shade of blue and a bit tatty. Im thinking of pu...

I seem to have a problem with my beloved B2 passat Turbo Diesel, which seems to have turned from a smooth 1.6 four pot into a 1.2 three pot that sounds and smokes like a knackered old lister cement mixer. Its spat its oil out and turned its water black, head gasket I thought, then removed the head t...

Hi there welcome to the world of B2's, I dropped the front of my Turbo Diesel B2 last year by 60mm (at least) and fitted new shocks at the same time. I fitted standard shocks not lowered ones and have had no problems with this set up what so ever. :D I've not touched the back though which clearly lo...

Hi there I have a CY TD passat myself but have no intensions of parting with her but have heard from a friend who may have a couple of old engines knocking around 'condition unknown' I will chase him up. What is your project car?

Looks like this old girl has gone to a good home, the next time Im down my unit I will have a look on my GL5 which I maybe breaking to see if there is a cover around the handbrake but I know my TD is just bare but that is practically a bogo model.

Fair do's mate I'd have liked it myself if I didnt have so many things on already I'd say you probably got a bargain.

I've fitted a couple of Firestones to the front now and I can actually get traction now! :) Next problem trying to get two more for the back and replacing most of the front suspension which we noticed had seen better days whilst the front wheels were off. Good job I've already got a front end loweri...

I just noticed this on ebay and thought it maybe of interest on here, I'd have it myself if I had room but with three cars a van and two motorbikes bikes as well as the boat I dont think its a good idea. (clearly I am single, but Im lovin it!) :D It says its a one owner from new 84 Santana with 1770...

Sometimes I think its the planet Zog other times I think it tastes like chicken but the reality of it is near Northampton.

I took the GL5 out for a spin around the grounds (Sounds awesome) and its nowhere near as bad as the TD but all the tyres ar fairly perished so dont think its a good idea to swap them over besides thats sitting on an original set of GL5 alloys and I dont want alloys on the TD pissrat as it goes agai...

I seem to have a problem with traction on my TD B2 it simply cant lay down its huge mounts of power! Seriously I dont nail the old girl but in the damp she spins like mad. Today it was spinning at 50 going up hill. As much as this sounds fun its quite worrying as it stops equally as bad, I locked up...

Im all over the place at the moment so Im not sure what Im doing with the old girl but I may consider selling sell it if I knew it wouldnt be broken for spares providing I could get another spares car or a pile of bits. Ideally I'd like to get it back on the road I dont think it would take too much ...

I've got me hands on some 60mm springs for the front on my TD and now Im looking to bring the back down a little to suit say around 40-50mm as its already sitting slightly bum down anyone any ideas for an economic job as I've already spent three time more on the car tha its worth not that I intend t...

I brought my GL5 off of ebay earlier in the year without evening looking at it as you do after a few beers. I only brought it for spares for my Turbo Diesel to be honest but think she is too good to break but needs a bit of work and a respray so dont think anyone will spend that much on the poor old...
