Only just realised I hadn't done a thread on my runabout. Bought from a workmate as a cheapie daily to tank around in whilst the Golf is being built (still). Ideal for the daily chug to work (not far, just not fast either), fill it up once a month which is just perfect. Powered by a phenominal turbo charged diesel engine unleashing a massive 75bhp. A few pics, lowered it on coil overs, added 20mm rear spacers, bit of de badging and de wipering to clean the rear up. Now refurbing some different wheels for it just for a change, might wind it down a touch when they are on. its not a fab looking car but by christ it lugs a lot of stuff around.

A few more..

i've washed this car

Best bath it ever had

Not a bad heap I must say Ross.

Looking forward to seeing the new wheels on it, not keen on the current ones

I've stood next to this and I have to say it does look remarkably 'hard' with the black wheels and dropped suspension. It's a nice combination of "I don't give a four-x so let me in" and understated cool.

No show and no go.

I love run arounds. Very impressive mileage btw!! I strangely really like this car

Nice battle bus!!

It does look mean with black wheels and blackened VW badge!!

Thats a good milage too. (Will it run on the fabled Veggie oil/Biodiesel?)

Quite like that Ross.

That's quite cool

The black wheels and the drop have really improved it.

K/.

Nowt wrong with that m8

Ihave to say i really like the ol' passats

Finally got around to finishing my wheels, one done. Doesnt look to bad for rattle cans.

Tyres on Monday, 10mm spacers up front, new top mounts and bearings, drop it a little further and remove the mud flaps. Also may tackle the rust blemishes.

looking good !

Really like that alot, Should look great!

Looking good
