The warning triangle looks VAG. Passat?

Aye, looks just like the warning triangle mounted in the boot of the B5 Audi A4 I used to have.

 

The sort of details you remember about past cars!

Oh God, you've probably bought an older version of my diesel Borat. I actually shelled out 28 quid to put in a VW Beta CD-player, which mine didn't have originally. Maybe should have gone for the cupholder thing as well.

 

Question is, which output? 90 or 115?

 

Mine is supposed to be 100hp, but it doesn't go like one....

90bhp and it feels like a slug compared to my Fabia 100 PD.

I have my reasons for choosing the slower one - I've seen a number of 110s with cylinder head issues.

There are some reasonable remapped ECUs out there which won't break the bank....or the cylinder head. I found a fella who would tune for greater mpg, and overall it seemed to work, especially around town.

EXECUTIVE THREE BOX.

I think these are handsome cars whereas the Mk4 Golf looks quite dumpy, the Bora is like a German HH-R saloon.

It has been dosed with veg oil, hopefully it'll be alright and I won't be chasing air leaks. It seems quite sluggish already but a 20th century 90bhp diesel in a heavyish car is never going to be quick.
