Do you mean the Golf ute or the Seat based van?

Typical Tasmanian! On this little island you ain't a man unless you have a ute. At least you have the good taste to choose a Golf ute, not one of the many Japcrap on offer. In Tassie utes sell for an incredible price. I guess it's a cult thing, but it may have something to do with the rural nature of the island. I've never seen a Caddy, but they have been sold in large numbers both in the US and UK. (There again, I've never seen a '90's Golf Turbo diesel....But I'm told there were lot sold in Oz.)
Think I'll crawl back into my box.

the VW centre in osborne park has a caddy in near mint condition considering its a parts getter... my eye's fell out of my head when i first spied it.

Came from South africa apparently.

Steve, as soon as the new KO4 and VR6 gearbox is in you can take yourself for a drive.
