I've had several VW Diesels over the years... and VWs in general... Karman Ghias, Beetles, Rabbits, pickups... always enjoyed them... I'm spoiled by my 124 at this point, but if the TDI does come with 4motion in a wagon and at an affordable (read used) price, I'd give it some serious consideration. :) in the meantime I'm waiting for the correct injectors for my 6.2L Diesel... found a shop that won't be outrageous to install my lift (still recovering from pulling a calf muscle pushing Omega out of the carport... didn't know pulling a muscle could result in internal bleeding... way cool... kids, don't try this at home. ;) My mind is writing checks my body can't cash. :) mark's 85 300D is doing ok, looks great... his javelin is sold, the '89 GW is gone and the new owner on the FSJ list. :) the '67 panel waits for our joint effort with repowering... not sure what we're going to do with it yet... may obtain a complete jeep and move the body over... we'll see. :) I'll see if I can't convince him to go with another Diesel.
