BILSTEIN Celebrates 30 years of Transporter T3 (T25) Syncro

Ennepetal – The VW transporter T3 (T25) was the last generation with a rear engine but also the first with optional four-wheel drive. It was practically inevitable that it would achieve cult status. The “syncro” variant, which is in great demand today, found its way into the options list 30 years ago. Because the 4×4 vans were used quite heavily throughout their life, robust suspension components are always in high demand by customers. Just in time for the 30th anniversary, BILSTEIN now offers a suitable portfolio of high-quality components – also for the rare cross-country version with a 16 inch chassis.

The BILSTEIN B3 coil springs are the ideal replacement for the standard parts of the T3 (T25) syncro because the high quality steel alloy provides extremely high breaking resistance, allowing them to easily handle even cross-country journeys. The gas-pressure shock absorber BILSTEIN B4 for the 14 inch chassis ensures maximum safety through high performance reserves, constant damping under any load as well as high traction and precise handling with reduced rolling. As an “improved replacement for standard parts”, the BILSTEIN B6 offers best possible performance and comfort for vehicles with 14 or 16 inch suspension through even more damping.

2018 Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster Review

“Supercars just don’t excite me anymore.” These words, spoken to me over a month ago by another journalist, friend, and (so-called) enthusiast were echoing in my head for far too long, but they’ve finally been drowned out. Drowned out by the wail of a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine mounted in the middle of the new Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster. My friend’s point is that back in the good old days, there was a crop of supercars that captured the imagination with amazing style, sounds, performance, and more. Today, it seems like everything is capable of supercar performance, with large luxury sedans outdoing some of the best and most dedicated teams of car nuts, while former pillars of automotive excellence are suddenly pumping out family-friendly SUVs. Beyond that, another league of supercars, dubbed hypercars have cropped up with hybrid gas-electric powertrains that make magical things happen quickly, but at the cost of the acoustic drama, visual flair, and engag...

Project SportWagen: Going Stage 2 with APR

    When we last left you, the humble little SportWagen was fresh from the development process with our friends at AWE Tuning, sporting a new downpipe, exhaust and intake, allowing things to breathe a bit easier.  The car sounded great, but there was no getting around the fact that our wagon was still quite, well, slow.   While we realize that nothing we do to the Golf SportWagen at this point will make it a race car, we still felt compelled to do something .  To put it bluntly, we had a fever, and the only cure was more power. Flash forward a few hours, and we found ourselves at Waterfest, staring down APR’s palatial spread and the numerous tuned vehicles surrounding it.  Earlier in the year, APR had hinted to us that their 1.8 TSI files would be quite impressive, and based on what they were able to do with the 2.0 TSI found in the new GTI and our time in their Golf R, we knew it’d be worth the wait.  So with this in mind, we lined our G...

Project Golf SportWagen- Intro

I’ve never really been one for SUVs and crossovers.  The current offerings aren’t the body-on-frame, go-anywhere specialty tools I remember from my youth, and what they lack in capability, they also lack in on-road performance. The current crop isn’t terribly good at handling or being efficient, which in my opinion are major components of our ideal driving experience.  So when it comes to space or utility, I usually look for something of the wagon variety- and it seems that I’m not alone. We hit quite a few shows around the east coast each summer, and we see modified Jetta SportWagens at nearly every event. Even amongst common consumers, these cars are highly sought-after. They don’t depreciate much, making even early Mk 5 2.5 versions expensive in comparison to other Jettas or Golfs of the same vintage. This year, Volkswagen launched their latest SportWagen, which is now billed as a Golf.  In many ways, this latest SportWagen is the best yet and it has certai...
