kombikim - March 9th, 2007 at 11:45 AM

mebbe it was occie straps

probably financially better for him that it broke when he stopped suddenly rather than accelarating

the green passat is up to 1994, a 92 model looking at the plate, then they "face lifted" them slightly, then in 1996 they totally re-vamped them with full on computers n stuff,
i had a 96 1.9 turbo diesel, fuel is expensive in the uk so i used to run mine on used veg oil, clean it, dry it, the free fuel for me, yippee!!!
they are a very good car, galvo bodys, no rust, lots of speed and towing power!!
my 96 model pastit was the old one not the "new" one

baybuscamperkid - April 22nd, 2007 at 09:22 PM

chains? naaah! we towed each of my kombis home on a renta-trailer with only ropes and the handbrake on, got interesting on one occasion when the handbrake went as we were going over the curb into our drive
