I was expecting a pic of a 2.2 gti!

[pshome]

[bub2006]

Ahhh shit mate. Sorry for your loss. I didn't realise you lived abroad.

[Mr_Bo11ox]

WTF

[strangeangel]

Sad fate for a very cool car

[trigger]

Oh Dude, What happened?.

[Junkman]

Das hätte es jetzt nicht gebraucht.

[tommotech]

That is truly a sad sight to see.

[eddyramrod]

Oh no!  What a shame.  Will you be able to repair it?

[alfetta]

!!!! very sad. Wouldn't want to touch that, hydroflouric acid can eat through your bone..

[NorfolkNWeigh]

Bummer, did the fire spread through the bulkhead? If not and judging by the fact the grille etc didn't melt ,it doesn't look terminal, just very messy .

That is such a lovely car it must rise like a Phoenix.

[Magnificent Rustbucket]

Oh how sad. Is it fixable? - I hope it is, but don't expect it to be.

[vulgalour]

D:  Bad.  Very bad.

[nigel bickle]

Jet wash it down hard, leave a few days, appraise.

 

It "might" not be as bad as it looks........

 

(Sorry mate, know all too well how that feels)

[pshome]

Unlikely to be saved... Every bit of plastic melted away, injection system, all wiring, electronic thingies, ignition, even the battery.

Will be impossible to find all the bits, remember it was purchased as a engine parts bin for the very reason of 505 engine parts being hard to find and expensive.

Even if you find the parts, it will take hundreds of hours to get it all back together and will still be an eternal source of all sorts of trouble.

 

Hey, thats live.... time of loss follows time of win, i will get over it.

 

[MarvinsMom]

jesus.... i'm sad to see this fine machine come to such a sad end.

 

but on the upside at least you are ok.

 

cars can be replaced, repaired, people cannot.

 

plus hopefully it will yield some parts to keep the other survivors going.

[trigger]

Oh cock, any idea what started it?.

[KruJoe]

Sad times

[pshome]

Oh cock, any idea what started it?.

 

not much left to investigate, likely a fuel hose got leaky or bursted away.

[Louise2cv]

What a shame

[Jim Bell]

XUD Conversion?

 

It's a right shame, but it could still live on.

[Mr_Bo11ox]

FAAAARRRKK, that's well tragic.

[pshome]

XUD Conversion?

 

It's a right shame, but it could still live on.

[MarvinsMom]

[pshome]
