Re: First mod to my Passat b7 estate

if you were to have gone for a 235 or even a 225 width tread there would have been an ever so slight stretch on the tyre which may have slipped up into the wheel arch when lowering rather that a slab sided tyre which may foul the arches. also, when going from 16 inch wheels with 55 side walls for ex...

Re: What's "the" B6 to have?

2.0 FSi or TFSi is well worth considering. They go fairly cheap compared to the diesels and to be honest, they aren't that bad on fuel or tax/insurance either. I had mine for 4 years. Loved it. Got 30 mpg around town out of it and it was nicely spec'd from new with enough scope to put my own stamp ...

Hey all, Time has come to sell the B5 and I am looking at B6s as possible replacement. I have never kept up with the various models in the range though, so I don't know which is the desirable one. If it was a B5.5 I know the AWX engine is the one to go for, etc. I have a budget of £2.5k-£3k, I'd ...

Between the ages of 12 and 15 I played every weekend and ran tournaments and loved it, really do miss playing, got a couple of cues, should play more really, highest break is probably about 80 odd I think. I tend to be really fluky too which always helps ;)

I'm up for trying springs as long I can get a good drop on them, I'm after around 45mm to 50mm drop, not against coilovers, had them on my mk1 golf and was happy with them, don't mind a harsher ride tbh, i have standard 16's with big old tyres on it currently so they'll help with the ride lol! but I...
