S&B’s Shit Pit Pork Cars

The purpose/intent was an SUV Dog Somerset cruiser

I live in the middle of nowhere, most of the locals lanes are shot, and have subsidence. It’s a bit nightmare in my daily Audi A4 B9.5 avant.

I’ve had it since end of January, and the only thing that has gone wrong, was after refuelling at the petrol station, it would struggle to start (replaced purge valve).

Touch wood, it’s actually been very reliable, and I think that’s down to me searching for a low owner, good history, good example.

MPG is appalling which is the only negative, and puts a downer on ownership.

Imagine what the mpg of the V8 must be like...

I keep looking at the V6 diesels. But that sort of misses the point really

God that Cayenne is cool.

I remember when they came out they looked so fresh, but then fairly quickly looked dated, but somehow have gone back to looking fresh again, I guess a modern classic now?

I've stumbled across a few on Facebook marketplace and after reading on forums, they seem to be the most reliable car in the world, or the least reliable.

Guessing this is dependant on engine?

It was cool before I negotiated a tractor down a lane this morning .

Also WTF happened with the previous owners, someone has been here before with the filla.

Ah, that sucks.

Light will be easy to replace, they are breaking loads of these.

Sorry if preaching to the choir here...

Bumper probably depends on how much a replacement is and in what condition + if the colour matches. Black is usually quite forgiving with colour match, so if you find a bumper of the same year car, you should be OK.

With a bumper that has that much filler, it's obviously been repaired before.

If it were me, I'd take the bumper off and look on the inside and see what sort of damage it had historically. It can be an absolute nightmare trying to repair a bad repair. Bumpers always get pushed in (obviously) so anything will show on the inside and you'll be able to see how badly it was originally damaged.

If you do get this one repaired, just remember they'll need to fix the original repair again, too. A lot of bodyshops won't want to get involved as repairing a repair can make such a huge mess.
