Deathtrap Caddy 2K - SDi > 1.8T

Post by xtetx »

Hi all,

I thought I would document the build of a 1.8T converted Caddy I purchased last September which has slowly become my living nightmare.
Here are a few photos of it when the van originally came up for sale.
It looked super clean and was being advertised by a local "VAG Specialist" who had built it.

I have started an instagram page also where I will be updating as the build goes further @deathtrapcaddy

Will upload some more content later for you guys to see!

Looks good so far but I've seen the wiring, it's a mess.
Think it's on the home straight now in terms of putting things right but my word it was grim.
