I got to Melbourne ok, but the rain on the way down was truly epic!! I had to pull over near Wangaratta due to not being able to see past the bonnet!!

Thanks to All
Great day Dom and a great couple of days for me. Thanks Dom for the work you put into the show and the incessant posts over the last few weeks that convinced me that it was worth making the trip down from Bowral. Thanks to the young guys that put up with me on the drive down and especially for the half hour swap of my car with the tuned GTI. Loved driving your car. Diesel torque but horsepower too. To the Melbourne guys we met, thanks for your hospitality, especially the Obsession ice cream and birthday cake. Thanks to the lovely young lady on the gate at SEDF who stuck a Show and Shine entry sticker on my window because the price was the same as the walk in entry fee for two of us but I have to say I was embarrassed to accept the Passat trophy plate.
My car was still unwashed from the trip down from Bowral and I tried to "hide" it at the show. Back in Bowral tonight my daughter (who drives a Golf) even said "How can you win something when the only individual thing you have done with your car is pay for it. Somehow I have to agree with her but thanks for the votes.
I have to say I was really impressed with the attention and love most of the guys put into their cars and particularly the devotion of some of the much younger generation.
We had a great drive. Back in not much over 7 hours and 5.28l/100km (calculated - not MFD). The TDI CC is a very quiet, comfortable and economical long distance cruiser (but nowhere near as much fun as a tuned GTI).
All in all, a great day at SEDF and I will definitely be back next year when I am sure Dom will conjure up an even bigger and better event.You know you are getting old when you cancel your order for a 3.6 CC and buy an Icelandic Gray TDI CC instead.
