Been on here for a short while now and thought it's about time I posted up my Readers Ride
So I purchased my 2001 VW Paasat TDI 130 sport around 2-3 months ago. The car is a polar opposite to what I had before. I was running a Seat Leon Cupra with EVERYTHING under the sun done to it, running a K03 hybrid at 263bhp and 284lbft, but during this economic climate and the commute to work everyday she had to go
The car has the extra options of cruise control and stereo controls on the steering wheel, a sunroof, heated seats
Full VW Service history and now 150k on the clock and still drives like factory new. Condition of it is mint
I dont have major plans for the car, as it has to stay as a reliable daily commuter, and I am not one for big rims and slamming it, my theme is "OEM with a Twist", keeping the lines of the car clean and simple and achieving a modified look without too much presence being created
