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,

  • QLD New Golf R owner

    Hi guys & Gals, My name is Chris and i have just taken delivery of my new Golf R, i previously owned a 2008 Evolution X MR so it's a big change for me.

    I look forward to getting into the forum and hopefully getting along to some Brisbane street meets if you have them.

    Cheers

    welcome!

    I too am new to the VW fold and also reside in maroons territory..

    Nice ride - which dealer did you get it from? I think rising blue is the best colour on the R.

    Hopefully my new GTI arrives in the next week or so from the good folk at James Frizelles.
    Current ride: 2014 Range Rover Evoque 5 Door TD4 Pure | 9 Spd Auto | Fuji White | Black Leather | 19 inch 'Dynamic' Wheels

      Welcome to the forums mate.
      Hopefully we can get you to some of the Brissy events so we can see the beast in person.

        Hi Chris,
        Welcome to the forum from another Queenslander! I just received my Golf R three weeks ago and absolutely love it.Mine's black with DSG,leather and 19" Talledagas.

        You've got a whole lot more on board than mine though!

        Incidentally,how do you list what you have in your profile?

                        Congrats on your R. Hopefully I'll catch up with you sometime around Brisbane or at a VW meet one day.
