very cool John
our westy is the 1.6 diesel version of this
and inside the engine bay it is very different
my breather cartridge is more of the implement style -
about 14 inches long and 7 inches diameter
rather than the jetta flat or squarish version like pictured here
i really like the office arrangement in the back -
that certainly would be a cool import -
gee and only 3K euros -
plus import -
15K $ by the time the smoke clears i would imagine
yours

There are two kinds of jobs in the world:
Picking up garbage and telling people things.
Successful people do both, with the same good attitude. (riw)
