Fantastic. Good cause too.

I was surprised that it could do 90 until I saw it was based on a Passat. No doubt a trusty 2.0 diesel. Even with shed like aerodynamics i bet he will get 50 to the gallon.

So that's what happens when you inevitably get bored of driving a Passat. ;D

The trusty one was the 1.9 PD, the 2.0 is far from fitting that description sadly
