As Gareth has ordered me to post pics, who am I to argue...
Stock
You all know what a 2001 B5.5 Passat looks like.
Then I hit 50,000 miles
Taken by my passenger

Stock wheels, added OEM fogs, Hofele badgeless grille, chrome mirror covers, short antenna, Brembo MAX discs, Greenstuff pads and some stereo stuff.

Trying out my artistic licence

Fast forward 5,555 miles
Yup, I'm a geek, so what

I'm now lowered using a Koni Sports Suspension Kit, I've added an A6/S4 hybrid upper strut brace, tinted my rear lights and added an M3 lip spoiler - the badgeless grille is in the garage being refurbished - I hate stones and motorways


Further forward, still the same, only the grille is now back, I've moved house and bought a new camera - this was taken on my return from our mini-Kent meet - good company, good food.

Suspension settles a little more and I finally get some new wheels!


Update - Spacers now added - pics to follow
Still to come;
Tinted windows
Leather interior (hen and teeth are the keywords on this one)
Revamped rear lights
Painted engine covers
Cruise control
Thanks for looking.
