B3 WGN is back on eBay! Anyone know what the number plate is worth?

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/251341101091? ... 1586.l2649

£47 inc postage. Think it was from a Golf though as had to change the pulley, just transferred the one off my old pump.

The VR in Ireland was for 1500 and I see a G60 syncro for 1400 last year in Germany but they didn't have the equivalent to our V5 so I didn't buy it, there might be some sellers on the continent notice this post so you never know

You know it mate. See a mint VR on eBay last year from Ireland but didn't have the funds back then. Wouldn't mind a LHD G60 Syncro though, drove a Rallye Golf for 5 years so drivers side don't bother me.

Anyone selling a B3 estate with either the G60 or VR lump fitted ? Had my 2.0 CL for a year now and want to upgrade ;)

Nice one, I'll let you know what price he quotes too ;)

Power steering pump has gone on my 2.0 CL B3! Has anyone got one of these in their spares, or do you have a link to a breakers that should have one in stock? Thanks in advance

Last weekend my B3 wagon decided to continue moving in the snow even though I had stopped, the consequences being that I had a little bump!

Has anyone got a B3 Passat bonnet and slam panel laying about? Need ASAP really.

Right, I've decided to fix my B3 rather than sell/scrap it.

I need a new cylinder head for an AAZ diesel engine as my one has cracked in 7 places due to overheating! Has anyone got one of these laying about in their spares or know anyone who has one?

Thanks in advance

Wheels look great, would have been nice to see em on. Shame about the headgasket, hope it goes smoothly getting it sorted

Cheers mate. I'm actually selling the wheels on ebay now, along with a 16vGT B3 saloon, and a Votex rear-light set-up including heckblende for a B3 Passat saloon. My wagon is ...

Are these the same 4-spoke's you've got Doobie? Notice in another thread you mention you've got wheels, steering wheel and lights, all Votex? Do you want another set??

These wheels may be for sale soon. My head-gasket has just gone on my diesel wagon! perfect timing

Also, does anyone know if Hottuning are still selling the Ta Technix coilovers? I've messages him on here and on the facebook page that the link takes you to but had no reply yet.

I can't resist! I was gonna wait until they were on the car but here are the wheels! And yes I know they're 4-spoke which I admit I've never been a fan of but I like these. Off to get fitted tomorrow!

Yeah something a little different, and a wheel type I've always steered clear of too, but these drew me in! Think they'll suit a B3, Marmite wheels!!

Hallo, delivery from Ze Germanz!

Cheers mate did think they were k-jet

Hi,

The B3 2.0 16v engine, is it K-Jet like the mk2 Golf or are these ABF engines like the mk3 Golf?

Thanks

Hi, I know there are 2 different diesel engines for the B3, the 1.6 and the 1.9.

I have mostly seen the 1.6 version though, did the 1.9 only get fitted to later models?

Are there any pro's and con's with each engine?

I was just about to do a buy-it-now on German ebay for £1400 and someone beat me by 2 minutes!! Ha, there's quite a few on there, G60's and Syncros too. A Syncro would be good for a 1.8t conversion I guess!!

Jeez, guess they're rare then. thanks for the info too!

I thought I see a VR on ebay last year for under a grand so didn't think they'd be that hard to pick up, if only I had the funds back then! LHD doesn't bother me but I would prefer RHD, I'll keep hunting.

is anyone selling, or could be tempted to sell their G60 or VR6 B3 wagon or saloon?

I'm currently selling my Rallye Golf on ebay and fancy buying a performance B3 if I can get one with the funds raised.

Thanks.

Nice one, time to get rid if the steels until winter then!

Hi, I can pick some old BBS wheels up my mate has lying about to lob on my B3, they're 16" x 7J and ET36, will these fit OK??

You can have it for the cost of postage if I've got one.

Sound mate, it's the right hand side one with the hole for the lock.

Do the saloon one's not fit then?
