completed a patch job on a pals t4 the other week and thought i would share a few pics showing how bad these things rot!
Is he still your pal?hated every second of it as it was so very rusty it made the job even more difficult.
next time i think its definately header for the crusher if new panels arent sourced for complete replacement.
definately would have been easier!
shame, mines a 1999 T4, wax oiled from new and all original paint AND original dents.....hahaha...
like a repaint but it'll end up with dents again.....shame......
only rotten items are the bumper backing stiffeners......
just done the swivel seats, Reno Laguna all elec.......View attachment 177750View attachment 177751
his tester seems to be very hit and miss with the hammer
Finger and thumb pressureI was under the impression that Testers were no longer allowed to wield hammers or screwdrivers when checking? Maybe @doubleboost can confirm this or otherwise?
Have you driven one - your right foot has to be twisted sideways to work the accelerator !Never understood the VW fascination, I'd have let it rot

What is interesting is how many people who like Land Rovers also like old VWs. You obviously aren't one of them
There isn't a van out there that hold money like the VW do.
i like vws i really do but when i went to buy a caddy and specked it out how i wanted it i nearly fell over when they told me how much so i trundled down to ford and bought a fully specked ford for half the price.Never liked any VW, the 2 year old Transporter I had was the most boring, underpowered, under specced and over rated thing I've ever driven. I also caught it on a gate post and opened the side like a tin can
