My new daily /winter car

Recommended Posts

I've been looking for an xterra, cayenne or touareg for Months. Prices for touaregs a s Cayennes were super low three Months ago. In the past Month they rebound died. I had my eye on this two owner 04 vr6 touareg with oy 134k on it for a few months. The seller had a lien on it and wouldn't come off his price. Well I finally wore him down and he accepted my low ball offer of $2100.

 

Drove it home yesterday and went to work. I had already ordered the small parts that it needed. So new pcv valve went on and the brake booster hoses went on. After replacing the egg is mint. Runs flawlessly and really enjoyable to drive. I bought some 19" late model touareg wheels from this place in Powell so I threw those on. Tomorrow I'm going to cincy to get some black cayenne 22's for it.

It had a rough idle and when you pushed the brake pedal it was hard as a rock. The pcv valve was split and the brake vac hoses were split causing massive vac leak. Once I fixed both things it runs like new. Super solid.

 

Ive ordered new plugs and coil packs and going to do a few oil changes to clean it out but other then that its ready to go

Love the deal on that Twat-rag, but I would've stopped at the 19s as well. Those rattle-canned 22s are trying waaaaaay too hard and not coming up with anything in the style arena.

 

Be Lauren: pick up sub-$2500 "winter beater", throw 2 sets of CraigsList-tacular wheels for snow duty. :)

 

I have cayenne wheels with blizzaks mounted for winter. These are summers

 

Hold the phone....you've got 3 sets of wheels/tires?!?
