Title: Re: Another diesel joins the (snowy) party
Post by: Craig123 on January 13, 2013, 06:05:16 pm

Hey, great forum, only recently discovered it. Apologies in andvance, I know as a diesel owner I need to keep a bag over my head..   :wink:

At bit different this one with the use of haldex (2.0tdi BKD 4--motion). I've had the motor for several years now, gone through quite a bit of change (Forum inspiration doesn't help the wallet  :smiley:)

I'll get the full details up, have put a few shots below, including one in its natural habitat (top of the lecht!)

Nice looking car mate. Seems to do very well in the snow aswell.

Have a look here a post your wintery pics. Trying to get a bit more interest to kick it off. Especially with this snow we've got  :happy2:
