These were some Spanish school kids on some camp. The driver revved it and they all shat themselves just after i took this shot. Funny.

New Scirocco is such a sweet car!

Motorsport Arena, Oschersleben, Germany.
Went for a blat on the karts track and then after 6pm weekdays they open the main track up for the public to cycle/rollerblade around!! Really cool idea. It was free and play music over the loudspeakers and all.
I also made use of the free showers and saved another night paying for caravan parks
Was cool watching the DTM on telly a few weeks later on the same track!

Why don't we get that many good cars? Seriously awesome stuff. I'd go live in Europe just for the cars!

Amazing sounding trip. Thanks!

This has all the hallmarks of an awesome holiday. Thanks for sharing. A couple of years back I went to Canada for the Toronto film festival and sidled up to film premiers and starwatched, etc. then travelled around northwest USA with TrekAmerica camping out and drinking too much and having an amazing time - looking at your shots reminds me of those memories and makes me hanker for a euro road trip. How did you get the car there? or did you buy it there and tour round and sell it? Well done anyway. Thanks also for the gratuitous beemer shots...

i think there would have been a problem if i was at that track,.....they wouldve had to surgically remove me from the cars.

Sounds sweet!
We landed in London and hung with friends & fam till we bought our T4 Transporter (the yellow one in the pics). It was taken round Europe the year before by the previous owner (a kiwi) so he'd already done a backyard camper conversion to it. It was basic but had all we needed. When we finished up our trip 6 months later, we made it back to London on a friday evening, got up early the next morning, cleaned it up and sold it that morning!!!!
I've got over 2000 photo's of the travels but these are just car related here

RIGHT THEN!

So, here it is. Wolfsburg. Factory is bigger than the town. If you dont work for VW then you best mate or immediate family does. If you dont drive a VW then you are either a tourist or an outcast looked at with shame.

This is the small museum in the town. Yes there are a few museums!
They have LOADS of cars but can only ever display less than 50% of their collection at once!!!



VWWATERCOOLED BANNER???!!




















I wish i had one of these for when that d_ckhead in the commowhore ute cuts me off...

Das original. The first GTI. Painted black chromies, single headlights, no wind delectors.

They made this thing for Worthorsee many years ago! It actually worked.
