Hello mates!
Been a long time stalker of this forum, but I now finally have my first VolksVargen. I purchased this little beauty off my mate Mike (Mike1_Golf on here I believe), and he arrived last week. I have not been able to touch him due to the horrible weather, but hope to have him on the road within four weeks. Please let me know of any events and VW clubs that are up around this way
. I really only know of ClubVeeDub (do they have a Brisbane arm?) in Sydney when I used to live there.
Anyway, my car history has been predominantly Nissan. I have owned about six R31s with various powerplants in the RB range, an MX83 Cressida with 1JZ, and just sold my S13.
Many of you may know this car from out and about in Sydney, and when it was recently up for sale. I told Mike months and months ago that I would buy it, and I am thankful he held onto it for me!
The Golf is essentially stock, other than upgraded Weber carbie and coilovers all round. The gearbox is also a rebuilt Diesel item.
My only plans really are to fit new wheels which are already in my possession, and have him predominately as a weekender. I hope to keep him for a while (I rarely keep cars longer than 10 months) and fix him up over a long period of time; much like what my friend Ryan/HuH on the forums has done.
So, good to meet you all, and hope to see you about at some shows!
