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,

              I'm planning on taking the wife and kids for the drive (and to stay with friends) for DOVW this year

              If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you.

                  Lol, Even a Polo??? Wow i definately should come for the drive down Does anyone know of places to crash down there, good cheap accomodation, Even a caravan Park wouldnt worry me too much.

                  Be a nice drive down from brisbane too!

                        Have you done this run before? I Have never been that far south so it would be good to go with someone, shame the speed limits in Vic will kill us I Was thinking the great ocean rd while im down that way, might be a good trip

                          add on a whole extra day if you want to do the great ocean road, its' a long drive.

                          if anyone wants some one to check out some accomodation or anything, give us a yell. i don't mind doing a bit of running around on my holidays.
