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,

    Smmmmmmmmooooooooooth, I want one...

    Can't wait for my lease to expire in 12 months so I can upgrade.

    Good to see the picture taken on yet another glorious day in East Brizzie.

    Again, very nice.

              Nice ride Guy.

              I like the colour coded bumpers, but the wheels are terrible, they look like cheap import knockoffs.
              However I know you will replace them with something more euro

                Thanks for the comments Gents,

                The Wheels are Enkei lightweights, spare track wheels - when the new car arrived yesterday we had to play "musical wheels" to get the stockers onto the MKV. I have my Oettinger RE 19"s to go on.

                I love the QLD range of cartoon numberplates - oh & thanks it isaw who spotted the plates for us

                    Nah, no options at all. I work form home so I hardly drive at day, let alone night so xenons never been a big must have for me.

                    Mind you when I do, the S3 has Xenons & they are pretty good.

                          Keep it legal Guy, keep it legal.

                          Love the rims and the plates, are you keeping that theme or are you gonna change them? (Road Runner perhaps)

                            Good question! When I get time we will try a few different looks with the wheels. No plans for any body mods at this stage.

                              Side by Side

                              Interesting side by side shot. The MKVI appears to be slightly shorter and have a lower roof line. Is this fact or just an optical illusion?
