Anyway, I'm Nic and I have had a B5.5 Passat for around 4 months and I have a lot of time for it.
I haven't got any huge plans for the car but if I did come into some money I would jump on a US spec boot and front bumper+strips.
Definitely going to get a stubby mirror on the N/S as soon as one comes along at a good price and would like to colour code the strips at some point but no rush!
Anyway, upon seeing this smiley

It is lowered on TuningArt coilovers which I wasn't expecting much from but I rate them quite well for ride comfort, I don't know if anyone else agrees?
And the Mercedes Replicas are 18x8.5" sprayed BMW Cosmos Black. I am always on the look out for alternatives, after going from a Mitsubishi Colt and BMW E30, it is astounding to me how the 18s feel like the smallest wheel I can put on!? I like them nonetheless but I'm used to being able to have 14s as the smallest option with tyres that cost pocket money!
All comments welcome. Good and Bad.
