Hello From Ireland

[elted]

Hi all,

 

I owned a Sharan (02 model) for a couple of years, It never gave any real trouble. It was the 2.0 petrol model with leather, sunroof, DVD etc. The wheels however were the real skinny hubcap kind that you only see on Sharan's, so I Bought a nice set of 16" alloys for it, also it was quite thirsty.

I got rid of it in Feb this yeay for a Pug 407 2.0 HDI. Nice car, but the kids(3 girls) couldn't get used to sitting on top of each other in the back, and in the five months that i had it it was off the road for six weeks, for two fairly serious problems. :lol: .

Because of this I have just bought a nice 04 Alhambra 1.8T (Petrol again), I am really happy with this, 37K miles, fssh, 17" seat alloys, DVD with large flip down, and Automatic. I have already fitted a CK7W car kit (piece of cake). I look forward to doing other mods in the future (with some help from you guys :( ). First on list is parking sensors, shouldn't be a problem as I did them on the Sharan. I might post some pics (when I'm allowed).

Talk to you all soon. Regards.

Thanks Bleeno,

Yes the 1.8 Turbo (20v) is a nice engine. 150 hp :( . It has a lot more poke than the 2l VW. The dealer tells me it is the Audi unit.

I'm very pleased :lol: .
