SV: [T3] Is it salvaeable?
I guess it happened due to lean running and/or overheating combined with
high rev's. While selling the car the PO boasted about how strong it ran
and how fast it had been (for a VW), which now leads me to believe that he
had been exercising a lot of "inspirated driving".
The guy took the car over after his old aunt when he was 18. At that time it
had only 2000 Km on the odo. And I guess you all know how it is with a fresh
drivers licence in your pocket and a almost new car at your disposal...
-Woohoo! -Let's race...
I havent done any disassembling or measuring yet, but I will borrow a
digital camera today and try to get some decent pic's of the mess.
