I know its not a 5.. but thought it might interest some of you
I owned this caddy 1.6 Diesel in early 2007 after swapping it with a mate for my Mk1 Golf, then late in 2007 I swapped it for back for him to fit bathroom window in my olds house lol.. Since then the car has just sat in his back garden ratting
I have now bought it back for £200, spent £15 having the exhaust fixed, £14 refurbing the gear linkage and just put it through its MOT last friday, knowing very well it would fail lol
Considering it is 21 years old & its been sat for well over a year, it didn't fail to badly... It needs a bit of tinkering with the lighting side of things and a fair amount of welding doing but being German its just a case of patching over the holes... Oh and its blew a core plug, so that needs seeing to aswell
