even with the taller tires and a 1.5" suspension lift, I don't think my syncro passat will have even half the ground clearance as that machine. Even so, it's sometime hard to avoid fooling around, especially since I work with a bunch of 4x4 guys who often blast around the nearby rough land on break. I'd probably want a dry sump lubrication system before taking on any angles quite like that. I like my engine.
I repair, maintain and modify VW's and BMW's.
Good work done at affordable rates. Welding and fabricating, too.

I've seen that video before, simply incredible.  That is what a perfectly balanced vehicle gets for you.   Not sure about the dokas, but I know that the vans are 51/49 weight distribution.  No way in hell my syncro would climb a hill like that..chug,chug, chug, then backwards down the hill.  :lol:
