Yes, I was lucky. It was advertised for sale locally and was on the market for weeks. I just enquired about it and went for a look. I couldn`t not buy it.

Re: Hello from the Isle of Man

Hi Karl,
thanks for that. Yes, I was born and bred here and love it. especially TT and MGP fortnights.

I don't know of any other early Passats over here to be honest, I think I have the only one but no doubt something will crawl out of the woodwork ;)

Cheers, Steve.
