2017 VW Alltrack - Nimble9's first Euro Car aka the DadWagon

But you could and would be enjoying it NOW!

 

Maybe after we book a vacation and buy a house lol.

Trying to be responsible but you guys are tempting me.

Found a local is20 also eeeeeeeeee

 

That's what we're here for.

Mod is life, bro. LOL!

 

Digging this thread.
This 2019 popped up locally and I wants it. Gonna sit down this weekend to see if I can swing it.

My only tiny complaint with the Alltrack is the black plastic exterior trim. I like the Sportwagen better in that regard, but like the Alltrack more on the whole.

 

Thanks! It's been a very enjoyable daily driver, especially compared to my old 2007 Forester.

I prefer the plastic cladding because when lowered I think it looks better than a low Sportwagen. Be sure to check the headliner around the pillars for any signs of water. These pano's are notorious for leaking. I had mine serviced with fresh lubricant and I tested the drains before buying.

 

Thanks for the headliner/pillar tip I'll def keep it in mind when looking.
*I think what I should've said about the plastic trim is that I like it on the darker colors like yours but not as much on the lighter colors. II'd really to find a black one. I was going to just get one as a DD but I've been thinking of just getting rid of the Taco and going all in.

 

I personally love having both. I just used my truck to wade through flooded roads last week lol

 

Cool VWs. My wife drives a stock 2018 VW Atlas, we like it.

 

Just putting this here for when GME moons

 

Added some side trim from the golf estate in Europe

before



fits well enough



Love the new shape of the rear with these

 

Okay Atlas wheels (Prisma’s) and 235/45r18 tires on stock suspension doesn’t look bad at all.

 

score!



Before


During


Soooo much better


Unfortunately this happened at the car wash



So my dealer will be getting a call when we get back from the Catskills

 

Oh no

 

yeah pretty bummed

 

This has been a VW problem since I can remember.

 

super common with these Alltracks unfortunately

 

Same rims on my wife's Atlas. I'm jealous of the black/machined finish rims on her mom's 2020 Atlas awd

 

yup! That’s where they came from! I’m stoked on the OEM+ look

 

Bummer. Is it sunroof related?

 

I believe the rear passenger drain is clogged

at least we’re up in the Catskills on vacation and it’s supposed to be nice a dry all week
