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,

            A few years..? Pushing 15 odd and beyond now I think, but hey I could be wrong. Honda also used to build the best looking Japanese cars back in the day and were the equivalent semi-premium brand that VW sees for itself.

            Now they produce the current Civic and CRV.

            I thought the gold badges were for the cashed up pensioners at the bowls club to help seal the deal with Maude the Lamington Lady.

            I think I'd pick a blackout trim for the window surrounds than go gold as well there..

                Yes I think that'd work. Maybe someone with a Wolfsburg edition that gets sick of black on black can go full JPS spec...

                    That might be a bit radical for our Australian Tig drivers..

                    • Gone with classic BBS CH-R in the graphite finish, just to keep it a little 'quiet'. I think silver CH-R would be overtly more performance looking:

                        Graphite hides the brake dust nicely between washes on a daily driver. Silver looks great for show. Better get both

                          Graphite hides the dust until you do wash it and realise your 'matt graphite' is actually 'grigio corsa' but I love your way of thinking.

                              As much as people rave about BBS, I've never really warmed the to CH-R. To me the centres look a little "heavy".

                                The Kapstadt I'm currently running are a grey metallic which tends to hide the brake dust reasonably well.
