Hi everyone,
I've been poking around VWwatercooled for about a month now and have decided to join what seems to be a great community of VW enthusiasts. Currently I am studying architecture at QUT and I have just completed first year. I own a dark green Mk3 Golf built in 1997. Its a great little car and I'm very happy to have it has my first car. It has been in the family for just over 4 years and has been passed from my brother to my sister (who now owns a VW Up!) to me!
Like any ageing car it has a few issues such as paint damage, falling in roof lining, no aircon
and a few issues with the engine and fuel line which I wish I had the expertise to fix myself. Hopefully I can pick a few tips up from you all and iron some of the problems out.
A brief history of car enthusiasm
Ever since I was a child I've loved anything with an engine. I've had some cracking experiences with cars, such as a ride in a Ferrari Testarossa (Age 6), Porsche 911 (Age 15), and a track day in a Lotus Exige S (this year). Not to mention borrowing my brothers Toyota 86 while he was skiing
. Since the family has had the Golf I've naturally developed a love for the engineering innovation and design of VW. My next car, which I won't be getting for years, will definitely be a VW.
Thank you for welcoming me to the community.
