Good luck!

May find some ropey Passat TDIs for that price.

I'd be looking at Peugeot 306s though.

Didn't say it would be easy!

I just missed out on a 406 on ebay by a tenner! Went for £513.

Occasional 1.9TDi A4 comes up for that. Going to be a much nicer place to sit than a similar Passat, so look for both and see how the land lies.

Is that a ding in the front n/s wing? Can only see it in the side-on photo.

Liking the a/c, not liking the tip of an interior - tells me a lot about the owner...

Good work, which version do you have? I had a 98 B5 which had some impressive sieve like qualities when left out in the rain, nothing a bit of sealant around the inner door panels didn't fix though.

It's a 1994, so that's the b4. Drivers window doesn't work and it stank inside, but at that price I can't complain!
