My family also rescues antique VW’s as a hobby. So those same 15 years I relied on the Wife’s various SUV’s to tote and haul vehicles and parts and etc. to shows,…

I found the Fox at a DCJR dealership as a trade in around 2002. it had under 100k miles and ran decent on the test drive. 3 days later the Christmas tree of idiot lights started to glow.
