You can fit virtually anything in the back of one of these, like washing machines, kitchen sinks etc... biggrin

Very surprised this didn't pop up sooner - very nice and quite the thing in it's day.

Agreed on the E28 Touring looking better than the E23 Touring but I'm afraid the E34 Touring takes the gold medal wink

That's the B5 which is the twin-turbo V6

They did the Passat in G60 and VR6 both in 2wd and syncro versions, for both the B3 and B4
lufbramatt said:
Yep, the B3 was available in both 2.8 VR6 and G60 Syncro flavours. The G60 was a very rare car indeed over here with only 3 ever being imported (LHD only). Lots sold in scandinavia and Canada though. Apparently there are less than 10 B3 VR6's left on the road over here too- they were mainly autos which have all died by now, the VW autobox of the era was pants.

They are decent wagons, loads of legroom in the back and pretty solid, after 23 years mine is virtually rust free. Mine has the 2.0 16v lump with 150bhp and its as quick as the VR6 due to less weight to carry around. With decent shocks and springs they handle just like a corrado.

Thanks for the info folks. Nice choice in your GT too Lufbra! Can't remember the last time I saw a quick B3 on the roads


Actually, I think we all need to form an old-school performance estate club! smile

I'd sell my Gordon-Keeble for a RHD E28 estate.

I see the glass looks like the W124 glass, but not the whole boot lid? Looks different.
If that's a serious comment about the Keeble, I'd be interested.............just got to find you a RHD E28 estate now!
