Title: Re: Congratulations Madfrog. Post by: Rocket Ron on March 30, 2010, 07:08:40 am Lanny you should be rightly very proud of the car
the interior alone is fantastic. Not to mention fit and finish of the tinware , under carriage, wiring etc etc Title: Re: Congratulations Madfrog. Post by: Tim C on March 30, 2010, 11:16:17 am Fantastic car! Kept walking back over to it to look at it again. Well done Lanny on building and amazing car and to Eric for bringing it over to Europe for us to see.

Always cool speaking with you, and as I said, the car looks 100% better with the new tires! 100% better? ::)Lanny, I know you prefere the car with the 135/15 as we discussed before, but the braking ability and the ride is fabulous with those 155/55 XAS FF. I wish you could drive it now to give me your feedback. As for the look, it is up to each one but I do like it with the 155 as well. It gives the car a nice old school look. Great car with any tires on anyway ;D madfrog Title: Re: Congratulations Madfrog. Post by: Lanny Hussey on April 01, 2010, 07:37:29 am Good points..I'm guilty of choosing appearance over performance. ;D The best driving VW I've ever built has 16" alloys w 205-45-16 (F), 235-45-16(R) tires. Not my favorite look but an amazing car to drive. Light steering, smooth ride and excellent cornering. Can you bring the Caldwells on your carry on luggage?... ;D
Title: Re: Congratulations Madfrog. Post by: empicolector on April 01, 2010, 08:31:44 am one of the best vws I ever drive as passenger ;D

Can you bring the Caldwells on your carry on luggage?... ;D Actually Lanny I was very pleased with the Caldwells ( even on snow... ;D) but I had to put road legal tires to pass the french technical inspection. Not sure about the "carry on luggage" transportation tough :D See you there ! madfrog Title: Re: Congratulations Madfrog. Post by: yvre on April 03, 2010, 09:37:49 am Those front tires are porn. I want some.
