    [Wanted: Car] anyone know of any B2 Passats about?

    Tony's gonna flip out: I'm on the hunt for a B2 Passat estate. I know, I know, they have a face only a mother could love and even then only while squinting but still, I'm in the mood for one. It HAS to be an estate, it HAS to be 1983 or older and it HAS to be rust free or 99.99% rust free...
