Diesel Swap: 1995 Volkswagen Cabrio

Today’s next feature is a VW Cabrio that started life as a polite Canadian drop-top, but now it has graduated into something far more interesting thanks to an AAZ turbo-diesel swap that turns this purple MK3 into a torque-happy little commuter with a five speed. Finished in Ice Grey Violet Metallic with a clean black-interior swap, it shows 59k km on the cluster and carries that endearing nineties charm while delivering real-world economy that no VR6 bro can touch. These Cabrios were all over the road a few decades ago, but have all but disappeared, so drive this and be the only one on the block (even before the diesel swap). Find this 1995 Volkswagen Cabrio offered for $6000 in Kearny, NJ via facecab dieselbook. Tip from Cory.
