Hi

I just bought this Caddy 3 weeks ago. Since then I have driven it 2000 miles.
It is a 2011, 1.6 tdi (75 bhp) fairly well equipped with electric windows, AC, Webasto heater with remote and roof rails.

The day I got it:


First order of business - removing all the dents (3 previos lady drivers using the car for delivering office chairs

Here is the dent dude in action.

I managed to get all the old striping off.



Also mounted rear mudguards which I found at the local scrapyard for GBP 2 each.

Next order of business was to remove the rear wiper.
A bit fiddly but finally managed to get the motor out.
Ordered the cover from Ebay in gloss black.

looks much better already

Thanks!

Spent the weekend changing the chassi. New H+R front springs and the usual rear lowering kit.
Decided not to go too low. Still want to be able to use it as an everyday car.

Some old parts:


Also decided to chage the wheels.
Out with the old

Just love those Passat CC 18" wheels.

Nice, clean van. Looks good lowered and on the new wheels! Good to see a fellow Swede here as well
