Hey everyone,

Passat R36 owner here; had it for probably 5 years now, and it's only my second non-Honda. Always just had it serviced and looked after by the local rep garage, but now that it's getting a bit longer in the tooth I'm more open to taking care of issues myself. Google searches...

Hi guys,

Have a MY15 Tiguan with just the standard roof rails and no tow bar. I'm after some advice on carrying 3 or 4 bikes. Kids (teenage) bikes - nothing fancy / carbon fibre / precious.

Do I buy a towbar and then get a towball 4-bike rack?
Do I buy the roof...

G'day, i now drive a Multivan, perfect for 4 kids.

There’s some really inspirational builds out there on some amazing cars by some really talented people.

This isn’t one of them.

I’m currently rebuilding a MK1 with ABF power running twin delortos but in the meantime I need something bigger than my 1998 Seat...

I've got H&R springs/shocks all round on the Cupra and they are too stiff for daily driving on the country roads between home and work (Canberra). I do 200ks (and 3 hours driving) per day and by the end of the week my back is sore and my teenage kids whinge like only teenage kids can. Even my MK2...

Am currently getting around in a VE Commodore wagon, but with twins on the way (to add to the wife and two existing kids), I am planning to get a Multivan in the weeks ahead.
