well screwing with court tonight.. discussion of how tdi passat missed... they been using old mk2 jetta as the 01 cabby in storage till may..
months ago im told.. gotta sell passat as wife wants cabby... weeks later.. ohh we storin cabby for winter.. weeks after that passat totaled..
see what happens when talked bad abt...
so since insurance needs to pay up... sell tdi swap? find other b4 do swap? ok got few ideas as well now miss passat..
but 3k insurance, 2500 for tdi swap.. sell 01 cabby ~4-5k... ok have 9-10k to maybe buy a eos so its passat sized... but no top..
want some real life opinions of them..
This was a funny, yet inappropriate picture. I, rallydiesel, am sorry for posting it.
Keep it clean
Hahaha haha Hahaha haha rallydiesel
both of you FAIL...
read title..
post reply.. rest does not matter 1 bit... but rest why on brain..
Don't do it.
NO REALLY, DON'T.
I WORK ON THEM.
I HATE THEM.
The top opens maybe 4 times trouble-free. After that you fight small leaks and the latticework folding roof starts tugging at it's strings funny. And I'm not even sure the Eos drivetrain CAN bus could take a diesel ecu, so that's a BIG 'if'.
Just TDI swap a cabby. You'll be happier, and it's less impossible.
what im lookin for... also hear the rear tires wear oddly due to the top's weight..
no diesel.. not impotant.. looking for convert with trunk for wheelchair..
Then doubly no on the wheelchair thing! You can barely fit a medium suitcase in the trunk with the roof down. The roof TAKES SPACE IN THE TRUNK when it's lowered. Not possible by any stretch of the imagination if you have a wheelchair!
And you're right about the tires, they have some extra side wear due to the fat ass, causes badd road noise and even cupping on crap directional tires.
Id go first gen miata for two seater covertible personally. Wheelchair might fit in the trunk though I have no idea, top is the simplest, best design I've ever seen. Not many cars as fun to drive
he thinking passat 2.0 rebirth..
so now start looking... b3.. b4.. vr6.. so on..
my requirements is 90-97 solid og paint that never had clear.. supposed to be white.. maybe red... but met colors out.. repaint out... southern/west yep...
b4 only better in i have b4 e-codes.. and new 100$+ each front win regs (dealer only as aftermarket crap)... new rad... condensor...
all those slightly different then b3.. but i can mod/make work all but e codes..
to make it tdi... honestly the woman who drives can care less.. depends on what i can find...
wagon = better then sedan... rear door opening more square vs sedan... but again.. looking for og solid color no clear.. that will be overall factor..
hate to get a white like bbob's that someone put clear on to peal
which it is... mine = no clear.. best og painted passat ive seen after 20 years due to it..
got tdi out of impound today... ~$500 in those losses... trailer still impounded... but i got to pay for tow and storage thru today.... all i wanted was a kiss or reach round... some spit would have been nice too...
Nice to have friends in the impound isn't it
