Ever considered saving the money you spend on poo mods to buy a car that lasts longer than two months and doesn't have accident damage?

I'd be interested to know how much Jamie pays a year in insurance admin fees.

No. I'm quite happy doing things the way I do so why should change that? Car scene over there is obviously different to what we do here, get used to it, same thing over and over again

This is one of the first cars you've had I actually think looks good. How long are you planning on keeping this one?

lol thanks , I loved my Xsara coupe but this is probably my favourite too, I do plan on keeping this one for a while, getting loads of good comments from folk around my town, very happy with it atm even if you brits don't like it
Got a few more bits planned and see what happens, saving for my next car already but will be a while before I have the funds so best thing I can do is stick with this one

The only Passat's that should have dual exist exhausts have a big W8, and even they are marmite.

Got the Passat remapped the other night to 140bhp, pulls well now and doesn't feel dead lol, got popcorn limiter mapped in too
Couple of pics after a polish and wax etc, might be the last pics too

You must waste a fortune doing cars up, only to swap them for others.

them exhausts really are ghastly, sorry to say but 140bhp in that tank and then popping and banging on the limiter will just be ridiculous, its like Ireland are 10 years behind in terms of modifying.

That would of looked good in 2001. The number plate is shocking and them exhausts are worse on this 140BHP beast.

It gets worse. What engine is in that heap of scrap? There's a reason you don't see any Sierra's about now.

Passat definitely looks better than that. I actually like yours, minus the exhaust.
The wheels are lovely.
