UKPassats

Thanks Lee, I will have a look. Got something planned 8)

Not sure if this is posted in the correct area. I need to know where I can get the adaptors to put MK2 golf fitment wheels on to my B5.5 Passat???? Any ideas chaps?

Hi Doobie Sorry to see your car has been bashed. I don't work for insurance but I know that they have a duty to 'put things right'.
