Well....hopefully going to see the passat this weekend coming!!
Spoke to the guy last week and i was wrong about the mileage....its only racked up 14,000!! lol
He said the exhaust is blowing abit, but i suppose even a vw exhaust can't be expected to last 33 years!! Rolling Eyes lol

Eh,if you need help getting parts let me know cos the Audi B1 80 was basicly the same car and I have a few contacts for parts still.
Brakes and stuff I'll actually have myself.

Eh I'll take it Laughing Laughing love the seat covers and axminster floor mats very 70's look.........So what you gonna do with it now? use it as VW intended or park it in a garage?
