Volkswagen Passat Variant, 2003, Pyhäranta

The car has been standing for a long time due to a collision to the front bumper by another party. The bumper was damaged and thrown away, so the new owner will need to source one.

During the period off the road, a larger turbocharger, +80% injectors, head bolts and a larger intercooler were fitted to the engine. The clutch was also replaced with a stiffer one, but it still drives nicely.

At the same time, the A/C compressor was replaced with a new one, as were the engine and A/C radiators. The timing belt service was also done during that time, but it should be replaced again due to belt age.

Due to the modifications, the car must be inspected and registered as modified.

Included is a 4 bar boost pressure sensor, which needs to be replaced when the engine control unit is reprogrammed. At the moment it smokes heavily because the software has not been programmed.

FK-Automotive suspension kit was installed on the car back in the day, and the car was used as that company's show car. (suspension modification registered)

Other modifications include:

Removal of side indicators from the wings and replacement with newer mirrors with integrated side indicators.

Repainted car.

Roof mouldings and GPS antenna removed from the roof.

Headlights replaced.

The car has been kept in neat condition and, during storage, partly kept in a heated hall.

This would make an interesting project for someone with enough motivation to finish the job. The car is currently roadworthy and spins the tyres enough that it will not be left behind.

The new owner will need temporary plates if they intend to drive the car home.
