Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

            Just spoke with Ray on Msn, meeting you guys on the Hume just south of Moss Vale at 8am but I will be there before that. There is a big rest stop area with maccas and stuff that you cant miss.

            We figure 10 hours will cover the trip with some quick stops, if both groups leave at 6am we will meet at moss vale. We could quite easily make that 5am to get us down a little earlier.

            I've never done the trip down, that going to give us enough time?

              Accomodation is sorted, and we should have a GPS on-board. We're looking to get into Melbourne late afternoon. We're thinking of heading to Dom's place first thing, so if we get there early we could just help setup **** for the BBQ. Pedro, Louis and I are staying a motel near Reservoir as well so would make things easier traveling to and from.

                    I vote for 5am leave to miss all the traffic and what not. Peak hour can be a bitch and by the time we are out of sydney it should be sweet. If anyone wants me to bring stuff down let me know!

                      Ok 5am it is, if both groups leave at 5 we can all leave the rest stop down south at 7 at the latest.

                      So it will be 2 mk3's and a mk1 making the trip down

                              James the thing is when I fly down into Melbourne there is a chance that I have to go into our melbourne office for a couple of things. That and last year I got screwed with my flight on the way down the Friday night they cancelled it and then I had to book another flight and fly down in the morning then I drove with pierre back but the thing is the flight down cost me $500!
