Great looking van, love the fact its still useable, not into show vans myself, seems a lot of work to end up with an un useable van...
i have to ask though... whats in the box?
Thanks! Yeah i like the look of most of the modified lowered ones but that isn't for me anymore.
It's a dogcage for my bordercollie, it is a big cage just for giving him enough space for long travels.

Love the look of this van, what ET are the sharan wheels?
And are they the correct centre bore for the caddy?

Wow, it looks amazing with the big AT tyres! I’m glad that’s worked well - I’m also planning to add some large outer diameter tyres. Still researching but will probably go for 215/55 R17.

Very nice jib and lots of ideas I'll be looking to "borrow" once I get my hands on a caddy. Thank you for sharing.

Picked up some MK1 Tiguan wheels and testfitted them.
Still thinking about the color. I am between gloss silver or satin black
Funfact they were on the Caddy Pan Americana concept car in 2008.

I like the black steel swamper look but with the black bumper and side stripes they get a bit lost. So I think the alloys look good.
If they need a refurb how about gun metal grey. Kinda of a halfway house but keep the premium alloy look.

Thanks both!
Brought the wheels away for powdercoating, should be back next week.
The steel wheels with tyres are sold.
Ordered new tyres for the new wheels.
