That's my favourite model of all Caddy's. I have the 2007 2k chassis, MK3, 1.9TDI (BLS). It's right in the middle of old technology and new technology with no DPF. I did a cat, muffler and resonator delete, and EGR off. "Choo". I love mine but want the older shape with a 1.9 or 2.5 TDI swap.

Hello, yeah it drives ok, not noticeably slow or anything like my old non turbo t4 definitely was. It isn’t the fastest thing on the road but you don’t hold anyone up either.

tiene una buena velocidad, no es tampoco lenta. yo tuve la misma y se ponía a 160 km/h . en subida pronunciada, se nota que baja velocidad y al no tener turbo no la mantiene bien, pero reduciendo una marcha o 2 se mantiene bien y no baja de 100 acelerando fuerte, lo cual no está nada mal. es buen coche

Cool!! Let me know how you get on with the build! Yeah you can’t get much materials at the moment and then they have doubled or tripled the costs, but stick some ads on facebook ask people for old wooden furniture, futons, beds, cupboards they don’t want, leftover packs of flooring and tiles etc, even old doors. You’ll be surprised what you can get for free.

I like it. The challenge, to realize it, as cheap as possible. Or if needed, because of small budget. My car looks also so ugly. Bought it last week. But it runs well, and all four tyres are well. My isolation wool, some plywood, and a green carpet for the floor - I got it for free. I got also a two flame camping gas stove for free. with gas tube, little gas bottles, etc. Some parts I bought it in the past. So i get the inspirations, how to do it cheap, with your videos. - Thanks. Greetings from sw-germany (middle europe.)
