Pah... I have socks older than you

We have been your age, there is no proof you will ever get to ours.

Bought an old Zephyr 6 once and blew it up on the way home. Rod out the side of the block. At the time they were 10 a penny so bought another the following day and that broke down on a busy roundabout 2 days later about 50 meters away from where i blew the other one up. This ended my love of Fords f...

Ha you young whippersnappers. I'm 50 and passed my test in 1979.

Or go to ebay and type in diecast passat.

So you are complaining that a job you would only normally do every 10 years or so takes 2 hours rather than one hour and then comparing it to a car that has no rear seat belts and all the ugly greasy bits showing. Really? A ha but I recon you've whipped coilies on and off a B3 wagon more times than...

Some sort of vacuum unit for the inlet i would guess.....with the hoses off im not surprised it wouldnt go.

Perfectly normal with the wet weather we have been having dry cold outside so no ice and damp and cold inside hence the ice, although you may want to investigate if you have a leak into the car somewhere when it warms up.

It should buzz but not so you would notice.... Take it off, clean it out with petrol and replace, normally solves the problem. for the price of a new one i would buy a new one as once it gets to the needing cleaning stage it will give up totally sooner rather than later. Not sure if this is your pro...

I looked at the picture of the car and thought "thats not a Passat" Then realised it was but it wasn't lowered.

About 6 inches here in cambridge but much deeper in the open areas where its drifted.

I do think scandanavian countries have it right, certain parts of year its mandatory for winter tyres. Spent some time in Norway and its clear why and how much of a benefit it brings. In 20 years the passat is the first car Ive ever personally owned and driven on a regular basis with ABS, it doesnt...

Oh my.... a little more rake on the screen and that would be perfect.

Recently bought an Alhambra having looked at all 3 types, its a '98 with 140,000 on the AFN engine 2 owners and full service history paid just over £1,000. I was looking at an auto but the gearboxes are a bit weak compared to manuals, even more so if you are considering a chip and especially with t...

Durr yep soz it was late last night ... So 17mm further out, they would sit perfect at the back and be ok with a roll/pull at the front as long as you dont run too low. I was running 225's dont forget. Fit all 4 before you give up on them.

On my B5 running the same et i had to roll and pull the front arch. rears tucked like a boss though so could have done with some spacers so they matched the front.... I can understand you thinking yours looks a bit wrong but i think thats because its up in the air it looks a bit 4X4 as it sits. http...
