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,

    • Dealer just told me - mine has cleared customs - now needs to use it's gsp to get to Adelaide. Excitement is mounting. Car was off loaded from Toba only 4 days ago - this is definitely good, if not awesome news - may even get it before the end of May.

        So far all i have heard is hear-say and guestimations.

        It's hardest waiting now as you know it's so close to being able to enjoy the car you bought.
        My car arrived at the dealers late this arvo. So its taken 9 working days from leaving the boat to arriving in Toowoomba at the dealer. Thats not too bad. I'll go check it out Friday arvo.

        • Great news for you guys. My dealer told me it would only be about 10 days from docking to delivery. There would be a a few things that could go wrong I guess but it's worked out good for you guys..

          • Great news for me!! The dealer actually called me this time (as opposed to me having to cal them) and they told me I can pick up my baby on Monday at 2.30. Gotta love taking time off work to pick up my new car. After all the inspections and such it is straight to the Ventureshield dealer to get my car wrapped and coated. So really don't get it properly until Wednesday but at least I get to run it in on Monday.

                • Mine arrived on 29th and when I rang the dealer last Friday (7th) it had just arrived at their compound.
                  I went to check it out, but it was locked away. Anyway, I have been speaking to them this week and I can pick it up at noon this Friday.

                    The 2 i saw where both white.
                    Since I ordered mine in April, I can only recall seeing 2 Mk6 GTI's on the road. A Carbon Steel one in Exhibition St (parked behind me, so I checked it out!) and one the other day on the Monash - a white one with Detroits and it looked great. I was behind him as he took off, up the on ramp - sounded great as the DSG changed gears....but other than that, see very few on the road at the moment.

                              Haha, yeah i haven't seen many as well. I saw a white one on the Monash freeway as well.
                              Saw a white one at Chadstone as well last night. Parked next to it on the other side

                                The on ramp at Forster Rd, heading towards the city....I think it was Tues morning maybe about 9:45am. It was very clean, looked and sounded great
