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,

  • ACT Newbie intro

    Hi all,

    Ordered my Polo GTI last Friday, and it should be arriving around the end of July. It's my first VW and my first new car (upgrading from a 2011 Mazda 3 manual), so I'm pretty excited! Looking forward to sharing pics on the Polo forum once I have it.

    Cheers.

    Welcome!

    Very exciting! Great little cars. I am also from Canberra, and if you would like to meet other Euro owners etc I can suggest a few groups on Facebook to join

      Nice, always good to meet someone from Canberra! Sure, shoot through the FB groups, would love to take a look.

      Actually, any recommendations on tinting companies in Canberra?

        Canberra Euros are a good bunch of people and one of the moderators of that site (Johnathan) owns Kim's Car detailing in Belconnen who can do tinting. Some of the members take their cars there for prep for shows.
        Boosters are a pretty big group over Australia but also have a crew in ACT. There is a mix of other brands (they don't want the bogan crowds in their V8's etc) of Focus RS's, ST's and a few of the Canberra Euro's group attend their meets in ACT as well.

        Up to you where you want to get it serviced, Northside Euro's are top guys and will look after you (they used to own Belconnen VW Centre), Reece and Gaz both race their cars and know their stuff.
