Well finally decided to do a progress thread on my wagen.
It's a 51 Reg B5.5 Passat esate "Sport" 20 VTurbo. Usual sport cloth trim inside etc.
This is how i found her the day i picked her up, in her fuly decked glory
got her home without any issues...but couldnt get her on the drive so on the road parking it was :
Bardge patrol
And then it was time to fix her
New track rod end fitted...and this made me laugh
After several months of beeing batterd and thrown around by the cheap nasty and broken TA Technix coilovers i fitted some FK AK'S courtesy of venom motorsport
This is how she sat after the new coilovers
And here she is at VW Alltypes
Buried in the grass
She then stayed the same for a while until one day i decided it was time for a colour change for the wheels and i got this
I dont know why i did it...i was bored :/
And here she is beeing a family car when me and the gf went camping
Then more expense. Window meh failure left me like this over xmas and new year
So replaced that with a genuine VW window regulator etc...cost a fortune.
Then i had a full suspension refurb. All control arms replaced and track rods done along with a few other bits re-done
And this is how she was after that on the a684 (or something) on a recent trip to Kendal
Few more weeks went past and another purchase was made in the form of these
Genuine Merc 17" Hoops 7.5j with caps
They sat in the garage for a week or so untill thismorning when this happend
And i had a text of a mate dinnertime showing the before and after
So just waiting for those to be finished.
I wanted them polished but going to get them sprayed a shiney silver instead
Orderd a few cheeky US Spec bits lastnight but they are staying a secret for now ;)
