the original Sharan/Galaxy/Alhambra was shit because it was built by ford Marco, all the runing gear and electrics were ford items

the MK2 version used VW running gear and 1/2 ford 1/2 VW electrics - so much nicer is the Mk2 version.

hi mark

if they were built by ford ........ why is everything on my galaxy VW(vag)... engine/gearbox/electrics/clocks/ecu/fuel pump/ sensors all are VW

the only thing i can see that makes it a ford is the badges front and rear lights

they are sharans with a ford badges on

mine is a 1.9tdi VW audi engine
