Rally T-Reg Gold T Reg After three consecutive wins in the famously brutal Dakar Rally, Volkswagen is no stranger to cresting dunes and speeding across desert terrain. And now the German automaker has rolled in to Qatar with a pair of very special Touaregs. Most...

Show me some, I am debating between bikes in the car and luggage uptop of luggage in the car and bikes up top. I know what bike racks look like but Id like to see some roof boxes on some variants.

Hello all, I love my b5.5 Variant so I wanted to incorporate the Nat. Lampoons Family Truckster w. it. Getting some "Griswold Status" Decals made up. What do you think? Anyone else wanna rock one?

I've been using the search to find out who makes the mini sub enclosure for variants since StLB5 does not make them any more. I found threads from StLB5 getting out of the business, but don't see thread for anyone taking over for him. Is this product, or a similar one available? I don't want...

I finally got the time to lower my wife's passat last weekend (had the parts for over a year) so I wanted to throw some pics out here for everyone to check out. Next up are some fogs for the red B5 (mine) and some HIDs for the black 5.5 (Annemarie's). Why I gave my wife the 18's I'll never know...

Hello All, I realize most here are don't know/remember me. I was one of the original CB5 (before that our little private VWVortex B5 forum) members..I had a '99 B5 1.8T Sedan Black Magic, Chipped, Neuspeed Springs, Bilsteins, lots of little mods this site was/is famous for. My car was a DD (70m...

I've looked around and have found prices between $675-$900 USD. I don't have any stars or stripes to head up a group buy. HINT HINT

Folks, I need your input. I am contemplating getting a Variant, due to the growing family and am considering both the W8 and the Audi Allroad. Since I am not in a rush, I would most likely be waiting for a 6 speed in either variation. So, I know that there are a number of pros and cons for...

So, reading a few posts about rotors this morning got me wondering about this. I've got an '02 4-Motion Wagon and the first rotors were severely warped within the first 15K miles. I replaced them with a set of cross-drilled (Breke?) rotors that seemed to get slightly warped within the next 15K...

This is my slightly ghetto Phatbox install on my 03 variant. Like everyone else the thing wouldn't fit in the slot. So I took out the whole shelf and mounted the Phatbox on the inside lid via the magic of velcro, it's stayed in place for over 2 weeks now with no problems. Without the shelf...

If you are running them can I see a pic of them on your variant or a sedan. I am looking at 18", but it is hard to tell what the lip looks like. If you have pics of the lip please post them. Thanks Michael

Everyone out there with Northern Green B5.5's, please post pics!!! Thanks!

Post your variants both B5 and B5.5. Nothing like bringin in the new year with a pic post of variants. Heres mine, bit different now, but not in picture condition. Keep this goin!!

If any of you haven't seen I'm selling my KW v2s (my wife thinks I spend too much time adjusting them) so now I need to see some Variants with different suspensions. I really like the ride of the Eibach Pro-System in my 99 but I don't think know how they'll look or if it'll be low enough. I...

I have an '03 Variant that is on it's second set of rain gutter mouldings because the original set kept lifting at the ends. The second set is no better, I will be going back to the dealer on this , but I thought I would canvass the Club B5 Variant crowd to see if they are having the same...

I'm looking to purchase a lowering suspension (shocks and springs) for my 99 1.8t wagon and noticed that there are not a lot of options for a mild drop. I can get either the sport set-up (HR or Nuespeed) with an aggressive drop, or a oem set-up (eibach) with a mild drop. I'm looking at the...

Title says it all!!! Looking for suspension options for my 04.5 Variant. Post pics and list what springs and dampers or coilovers you're running and ride quality if possible. I'll start. Springs - stock Dampers - stock Ride Quality - sucks Thanks! Paul :thumbup:

My wife is ready for a new car. She is currently driving a Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited, but I'm slowly talking her into purchasing a Passat wagon. This is what I have for myself, and I'll be keeping it, so if I'm able to get her to buy a variant - cool! She wants something "sexy" so I need...

I cannot make up my mind what kind of tint I want to use or even which windows to tint. I will either tint all of the window or all of them except for the driver and front passanger. Then I am not sure if I should go 50% or 35% or a combination (50% front 35% rear). :nervous: too many...
