  • G'day from Newbie to site!

    Hi everyone,

    Just thought i'd make myself known to the forum. Moved out from the uk just over a year ago. Been dying to get back into a VeeDub as i sold my 98 MkIII GTi when i moved over here. Just bought a 79 Cabriolet as a bit of a project to keep me going. Looks like it might be a bit lonely here on the west side. How many dubbers are there in WA? would be cool if there were any meets organised etc.

    Anyway, say hi if you like. I'll be on here quite a bit i think...

    Catch y'all soon!!!

        Hi

        It took me over 12 months to find the GTI!!, I wanted a 3 door little bumper 8v, since these were never officially imported it took ages to find, As for the Audi i brought that with me from the UK,
        Im originally from Telford in the Midlands, now im up in the Hills, kalamunda area.

        As for dub meets have not heard of any, there is a euro club who have a meet every now again, think its mostly bmw, mercs tho, ill find out and get back to you

              Youo WA guys should easily have enough numbers to organise a gtg. All you have to do is announce it and stick with the organisation.

                  Just to let you lads in on it, one of the vortex crew over here on the west organises a drive day ( next due 20th May) every so often, OK they may be driving all new model stuff, but me and the MK1 rocco roll up time ( and mechanical reliability) allowing . PM me if your interested, the more the merrier..
                  Lots of MK 1 Scirocco's...

                  If it aint a MK 1 then it must be a donor car ??

                  Cheers,
                  Grant...
