Sold Free '98 VW PASSAT TDI B5. MOT AUG.

[Kiltox]

Looks mighty tidy.

It's really not. Not beyond saving mind.

[bub2006]

Pictures flatter it?

[Kiltox]

Exterior isn't anything a polish wouldn't sort apart from the rust above the windscreen which is a common rust point on those and A6s of a certain age

 

Interior is minging due to the leaks

[bub2006]

Someone here will show it love no doubt. I'd be interested but I've no need for it, c2 has passed an mot and plenty of more folk would be in need.

[Lord Sterling]

It's tidy enough for a weekend tinkerer. Bodywise it's pretty straight, small bit of rust bubbling on roof but nowt a skim down and repaint wouldn't sort. Interior needs a hoover and seats need a bit of scrubbing, but it's all there. It's a mix between the A4 and A6. Sort of slots nicely I between the 2 if it were an Audi.

 

It certainly has the potential to be a nice straight and strong car. I wish I could keep it and get it sorted but it seems like it really didn't want to be owned by me, I shan't be able to enjoy as I'd like to have done but never mind. Maybe it's time I sorted or scrapped my Sterling.

[bub2006]

I'd love another 90s vag diesel. Certainly will be what replaces the c2 if the bloody diesel tax won't cripple me.

[bub2006]

Just not a golf!

[purplebargeken]

Oi! Nowt wrong with Golfs!!!! :)

[bub2006]

True, just have more of a preference to others.

[Lord Sterling]

Right. Passat up for grabs again. No change. It's here, come and get it.

Considering your circumstances Mo, I doubt anyone would begrudge you sticking it on Gumtree for £200 or whatever, so you can afford to pay the rent, or MOT a Rover etc.

I know you got it free, but you owe Autoshite nothing, you've helped out others in need.

Totally agree. Bit left field but a mate of mine is after a spare for his new SEAT Altea.

Happily bung a few quid for the spare in this if its holds air.

Wang it through Cannock for a laugh, a bit of tyre shine it should make a few quid because it's got the right badge on the front.

 

Plus I think the rules are if you buy a car you automatically win, if you sell a car you automatically win and have to buy everyone a burger.

[beko1987]

He'd walk away down on the day if he bought everyone a burger though! It would b be the most packed cannock ever

[Lord Sterling]

Anyone up for this before I wang it on some sale ads site?

[SiC]

Might be better off in a separate thread. This one makes it look that its sold.

This may be VEG FRIENDLY!

No maybe about it- these lumps LUV TEH VEG:)

[Rovorsche]

I dont know much about Audi's, I helped a mate repair the wiring loom to the rear doors on his A6 a little while ago.

 

I do have a Ford Galaxy which is a hotch potch of Ford bits and VAG leftovers that had similar charging issues.

If your passat has one of these bits of shit under the bonnet the fix may be free provided you have a good wire brush.

 

The crispy black wire is the feed from the alternator in that picture.

 

 

 

 

 

Apologies if I'm teaching Grandma how to do tricks with eggs and all that, just my tuppence worth on the subject.
