Technically the Passat is the wifes car so I cannot really claim I drive it on a daily basis. Have to admit I have never really been taken with the VW marque as a whole, but now owning one I am impressed with it.
Anyways onto the question in hand. What else do you drive?
For me its my daily runner. She is a 1990 Mk.I Isuzu Bighorn (read Trooper) 2.8 TDi LWB Lotus Edition.
Standard options (bear in mind she is a 22 year old utility vehicle ... not one of these new fangled Chelsea Tractors):
Lotus tuned suspesion
Extremely rare factory fitted high roof option
Rear limited slip differential
Manual locking front hubs (For those in the know you will understand )
Front heated recaro seats)
Electric windows (bear in mind she is meant to be a utility vehicle, so this is a major bonus lol)
Modifications:
2" suspension lift (yes lift ... not lowering. Ground clearance is the key to off-roading )
3" body lift
33"x12.5" R15 tyres on Toyota Surf steels (custom painted to match bodywork)
4" wide each Irmscher arch flares (designed 22 years ago for the Isuzu Trooper Irmsher edition)
Full body respay back to the original colour.
Pictures:
When I got her
And now
In action
To give an idea of the size of her (6'10" tall and 5'11" wide) after the modifications. The Landrover Discovery on the right is standard height
and behind my Nissan 300ZX
Enjoy (I hope)
What else do you drive?
