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,

  • G'day

    Hi there

    newbie here
    Been around dubs for longer than I remember, but time to join the water cooled peoples.

    My current drive is a 2011 Polo GTI

    Other VW's I own (or at least pay rego on)
    Wife - New beetle 2008 TDI
    My daily (now retired) 1975 L bug 1916 German Looker
    #1 son - 1989 vanagon caravelle
    # 2 son - 1997 Golf Mk 3

    So I own a VW out of the last 5 decades - I really am HIV(W) positive

    I have driven air cooled's for the last 20 years as a company car, but I have reach a time in life where I need to turn up to meetings not smelling of petrol and grease under the finger nails

    Sadly my L bug motor locked up the other day and I lost it.
    Got it towed to my mates and told him to sort it - I'm over it.
    I normally do all the spanner work my self but I am just too busy these days to be splitting cases to get it back on the road straight away
    Anyway - rang around to see what was out there - I really liked the new Polo GTI's.
    Everyone laughed at me - "you want what?? when??............. gimme money and come back in 9 months"

    Anyway - on the 3rd call I came across a cancelled order.
    GTI, leather (well whatever) xenon, 510?? stereo and MDI??

    I did everything against what I have preached for the last 30 years - buy a new car and buy it straight away

    Anyway - it rocks.
    I NEED a car for work and I am over pulling jets on the Dellortos at 10.00pm at night when they get blocked.

    So - I am sure I will post away and ask lots of questions

    See ya

    Barry
