As iam making the move early next year i was wondering what the scrap yards are like over there? Are there any good ones in WA that just do VW?

There are a few VW specialist breakers but not like the UK. If you are bringing a container over. I'd get one in the UK and bring it with you. wouldn't take up much room.

You could look for a front cut as they call them here, again not thick on the ground.

We had a VW only wrecker up til a few years ago when he shut the doors, but was all mid - late 80's or older stuff..

Scrappys as you know them in Uk dont exist here in Perth ( or likely anywhere in Oz) I pretty well import a great deal of Items i use direct from UK or the US. ( when i am there to go scrapyarding), having a mate that ships stuff regularly helps keep the importation costs down.

Advice :- bring as much with you as you can, even stuff you wanna sell.

Imported my first 1.8T from USA, cost me about $1700 to land it here, number 2 came from a complete A4 front cut, local supply.
