Nice, they’re so awesome. I sold that car for what I bought it for after stacking 80k on it.

I needed something with AWD so I got a gen 2 Touareg TDI and like it a lot. Had it for a year no problems, fun to drive, rips off road and in the snow. But I miss my 5 speed TDI mk4.

My dream is to buy an MK4 R32 and swap in a built out BEW or ALH TDI motor…

Sounds like a reasonable bucket list project.

TDI, all wheel drive would be a lot of fun.

I like that idea.

Six speed. Better suspension and brakes. Awd. It’s the dream.

It would take a fair amount of time, but with a well laid out parts list, it would be quite possible to build one just starting with a base golf.

(Engine/drivetrain/suspension swaps are one of the things I do)

Starting with an r32 would make us significantly simpler, however.

I’m not sure I have the ability or confidence to do that diesel swap. I’ll probably bitch out and pay someone like you to do it for me.

The good part is that all of the needed components are factory VW. Saves a lot of headaches.

It's definitely a project with the time.
