1. But you get an allen wrench and a little bag of wooden pegs to put them together with.

No problem.

[Rabrrrrrr]

2. With two poorly fitted alan wrenches and a 4-page foldout on-english pictograph directions

[flvegan]

3. They sell houses, so why not? I can't put together either one.

4. That looks like the new Swedish version of the VW Golf.

......

5. That was a returned model

The tires are already on the rims, that's how you can tell.

I bet there are some parts missing, too!

6. Fine, as long as they don't have drawers.

IKEA drawers never work for long.

7. Keep that allen wrench in the glove box after you're done putting the VW together

you'll undoubtedly need it since VW parts fall off regularly. :D

8. Is it available unpainted?

Makes the seam welding and rollcage installation easier.... Think I'm crazy? US car co's sell "bodies in white" to race car builders - can't be registered (no VIN)

9. I would have no problem with this.

But then I am awesome.

10. If I had more artistic talent, I'd translate the Kama Sutra as an Ikea instruction book

11. If it is like their furniture, it will wear out in less than 2 years!

I am the official IKEA hater at DU...


God I hate them! :grr:

12. They sell houses in Europe, so why not cars?

13. I hope Peter Aschwanden got royalties from that image

This is the famous "disassembled Beetle" drawing in John Muir's "How to Keep Your Volkswagen Alive."



I have been told this picture depicts EVERY part in a Volkswagen.

14. A wonderful book!

someone in my immediate family has owned a VW since '56. We have reduced a couple to this state.
