[Vwdiesel] Diesel vs hybrid battle heats up

[raymond greeley]

I see the same pricing for the b4's and 5's in chicago and usually the body has begun to bubble in places.
I would like to convert a gasser, with a 1.6td i have, though finding a good body with the 4cyl manual set up (to ease the swap)
is hard to come across. ray> From: LBaird119 at aol.com> Date: Wed, 3 Dec 2008 13:00:26 -0500> To: vwdiesel at vwfans.com> Subject: Re: [Vwdiesel] Diesel vs hybrid battle heats up> > In a message dated 12/3/2008 8:29:15 AM Pacific Standard Time, > eriklane at gmail.com writes:> > > Just getting in the car and driving it off the lot loses thousands in> > depreciation, as it's now a 'used' car, not 'new.'> > > > Have you looked at the prices of a B4 Passat TDI wagon?
