1982 Passat 1,6 Bamako Motors

[wrecksforever]

My fourth car came this August: An old Passat 1.6, 1982, with historic registration ("H" as the last letter on the plate).





The last owner is a friend too, who has bought the same model as a diesel and gave me this really nice station. I have had the same car in the same colour with the same engine during my times at university about 13 years ago. My favourate colour for old VW

Minor problems with the carb need to be done, but it runs.

Of course it has to work too in my hands:

What does the historic registration mean in terms of being able to use it then? Can you use it as an everyday car?

The car has to be 30 years old or more. It has to be in an original good condition. You can use it as a an everyday car, but most of the insurance companies, which offer cheap policies (less than 100 Euro/year) for these cars, ask for the existance of another daily car. No problem, because I`ve got 3 other cars.
The limit of kilometers I am allowed to drive with the Passat every year, is 8.000, which is more than enough.

The tax is always the same: 192 Euro/year.
