I like that a lot.

Not normally my cup of tea but the wheels and drop really suit it.

I assume irony is involved?

Although an estate would indeed be sensible family transport, not sure about the collapsed suspension that looks like it wouldn't clear any speed humps and an engine that wouldn't clear 20mpg? Did VW ever do VR6 estates?

Wheels do suit it though.

The trouble with doing nothing is that you never know when you are finished.

it is our new family car!!  suspension will be raised as we cant get into town to go shopping because of speed bumps. according to dash we did manage 37mpg on way home!! more like 25 then driving normal roads less than 20mpg definitely. its a conversion done by a vw main dealer in Aberdeen. i dont think they did do an estate vr6 2.9.

engine was built to accept a supercharger so needs a remap on the rolling road to run w/o one.

just lifted her up a whole inch, you cant really tell by looking but you can tell when your driving much much less scrub on the arches.
