Sold

Time has come to move the Caddy on. There's absolutely nothing wrong with it - but I have urges to move on to something else, something a little larger, with a few more seats. I've also reached the point where if I was to start upgrading more bits (stereo etc.) it would start costing me more and more, and I'd rather put that in to the next project.

Simply scroll back thru the blog for history and more pics

So here goes, a quick 'for sale' ad:

Now sold. Thanks for looking.

No part ex's or swaps unless you've got a totally sorted Passat estate TDI of a similar age.

The Caddy has wanted for nothing and has been totally reliable. It sailed through first MOT.
Good points: Raven Blue - a much sought-after colour, it's already lowered and the suspension has been tweaked and refined to get it 'just right'. There's still scope for you to make your own mark on the inside. Everything works; every switch, button and dial. I also have contact details of the two previous owners should you wish to trace the van's history. It's a low-mileage Caddy that hasn't worked hard for a living, spending most of it's life empty!
Bad points: the front bumper and bonnet could benefit from a tidy up due to stone-chips. It's not a perfect show-pony, just a good, clean, honest daily-driver. And that's it.

Want to turn heads in 2013? Do it in this Caddy! Thanks for looking.
