Project Caddy

[Big Pimp]

Looks epic Ross! Health to drive mate, will look great with the decals

You'll not miss me now mate

 

[Big Pimp]

Looks awesome @Big Pimp

How is the rear lowered given its leaf springs?

It's an axle flip kit mate. Picture attached for reference

Helios look so good!!
Brilliant band Ross, I'm sure with the Anachem stickers it'll look whopper!

Yes mate, think Helios are spot on for it. I think the yellow Anachem stickers will definitely set it off, although I nearly don't want to sticker it up now!

 

[weeloaney]

Thought it was something like that.

Now get her stickered, we want to see it.

 

[c_rad]

Some difference from when I last seen it sitting in the yard! Wouldn't even think it was the same van. Excellent work!

 

[gav525]

Love Caddys for some reason, and that is spot on

Keep trying to justify buying one for myself, but have not come up with a suitable excuse yet

 

[Dandy]

Looks great Ross, what shade of black is it?

 

[mcma1]

Where are you in ballymartin? Been rumbling through the past few weeks in the defender and must call in! Caddy looks great. Have a DSG one myself for longer runs as I am a getting old.

 

[Brennan]

You'll not miss me now mate

Definitely not, will be on the lookout

 

[Boydie]

Looks great Ross - What can you do with the interior?

Our new work van is a caddy and I like driving it to be honest! Would be great driving a modded one I think.

Seeing @Deezer-D's R convinced me that VW Deep Black Pearl was the way to go.

School Road on the right hand side as you're going through. About a mile up that road and we are up there. You shouldn't miss the yard now and the lorry is normally sitting pretty prominently!

Not much more really with the interior mate. Already has a nice set of bolstered seats, although if I see a set of the tartan GTI/GTD seats at sensible money I'd maybe grab them. Scirocco R seats are another popular swap.

There was very nearly a set of E46 M3 seats going to go into it!

I love driving the van. It's so handy to have everything available in the back so I will always have car cleaning supplies in it too!

 

[jimc]

Van looks perfect, love those rims, makes me want to paint my own but then I think nah, I'm also running a dsg and love it.

 

[Big Pimp]

Done my first common interior VW thing today (in between 1/2 valet on the interior) and fitted armster armrest.

Actually a great job

 

[Big Pimp]

Just need to get rid of the dodgy stains on the seats now!

 

[jimc]

Did you do the bulkhead cover panels on it ? it makes some difference

 

[FN2DAVE]

Super looking van ! Have a thought for a caddy or similar if the women ever gets her car test done I'll give here the car and a van will do me for work and dog duties.

Yes mate. For something so simple they make a huge difference

Jesus you'll have made @Boydie 's day with a mod like that ... just finish him off now with a US hazard switch lol

Some change from when you first got it Ross ... well thought out it seems. Will it be used for deliveries/work horse etc?

Thank you mate. Well, I did have an idea in my head of how I would like it to look and it's pretty much turned out how I wanted it to.

And yes, the intention is that i'll use it for exactly that kind of thing. Vans are handy for work and when I'm going to customers to do fit outs of dispensers and equipment it's just so much handier.

Yes it'll be bang on for that and offer a bit of free mobile advertising also.

How's the Jag treating you? Still love it.

 

[mc mullan]

Great looking caddy! Sitting perfect, they are a brilliant van. where about did you order the arm rest? I do serious miles in mine would be handy.

Exactly mate. Plus I can always hold a bit of stock in it too!

Loving the Jag dude. It really is so comfortable and effortless driving. Gets plenty of positive reactions wherever I go in it as there are still so few of them on the road!

Thank you mate

I got the armrest from here:

Excellent colour choice

 

[Steve]

Looks excellent, great colour choice.

What covers are these out of interest or are they something you had made up yourself?

 

[Jordy]

Looks fantastic, looking forward to seeing it stickered up.
