😢 It hurts to see something that good and not be able to do anything about it...

Haven't seen a better one ❗

How many sets of lights does it take a $229k Carrera S to learn? 😂 UPDATE: Cayman S, M3, B4 now added to the list.

That's hardly fair.

Sounds good to me.

It's a beautiful car. I don't know when VWs first went on sale in New Zealand but it could be they started a couple of years before us.

You would be CRAZY to modify it in any way. Keep it standardand immaculate. Put it on Historic Rego and only bring it out for VW shows. It belongs in a museum.

I know you're kidding, but they've already made a VW with a front-engined V8 transplant (actually a W8) - the Passat W8 of 2001. It also has struts...

you could do some nice reversable mods to that thing to really make it a sweet ride like some 17" BRMS, an adjustable beam thats NOT F'KING NARROWED!! and a mild engine that fits with no hacking

its too plain as it is

whats wrong with cruising along in the left lane with 25 brutal horses behind you? Plenty of factory fucked up 1302/3 beetles out there to destroy.

if I had a car as sweet as that (of any make/model) I dont reckon I'd be driving it too much anywhere. Too many other cars/drivers out there only too willing to destroy it in an instant.

BTW I'll be parking my falcon at coniston tomorrow if anyone happens to be cruising around in a bulldozer

I wouldn't touch it - the fuel pump, carby and voltage regulator need to be replaced with correct items. 😂

Being RHD, it most likely was assembled in Ireland or South Africa as a CKD kit.
