"Rear diff only locks in reverse"
Good enough to get out of trouble. I PM'd you my email/phone number but if you like I can call you. Just zip me the number.
Figured I'd include this for those curious about Syncro:
http://www.awdwiki.com/en/volkswagen/#Golf_Mk2_Syncro__Passat_B3__B4__Sharan_Syncro__1996_2001_Looks like a nice, simple set-up. There is a lot of info out there from many folks that could safely be called Syncro junkies, but you may have to learn German.
And BDR, I would appreciate if you could email me a bunch more pics, and I have a bunch of questions that I will email you once we establish contact. The ferry is pricey so I want to deal with as much as possible before crossing the pond.
I'm not quite sure why I can't seem to make contact with you, but if you decide you want to sell the car I am still interested.
Just in case anyone else wants to check out this fine car, I think it is still available. I backed out and bought a project car instead.
Bump for new engine and suspension
ja, me too...
what about bringing it over and sitting on it for a few years before registration?
