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,

  • ACT Spotted in the ACT

    Let's get this one rolling.....

    Daily commute spies a blue 9N GTI outside a school in Lyneham. Teacher perhaps?

    MkV GTI Pirelli in the same underground carpark as I.....along with a blue 5dr R.

    Black MkVI GTI with the plates "MK6". Lives in Bonner? That was me tooting hello.

        Drove past the Treasury building in Barton today and the only cars parked out right outside the front doors were 2 Mk5 GTIs, a Mk5 TDI, and another 2 Mk5s Golfs - no other cars...

        What is this saying about the demographic of VW ownership? Does the VW dealership make you fill out selection criteria to see if you qualify for purchase?

            Myself and a few of the other boys spotted a very nice T4 Transporter on the Federal Hwy heading toward Canberra tonight... Big wheels, dumped, gray, and looked like a camper version... The owner looked a bit sour though... Skinny looking bloke with black hair... Anyone know the owner??

              Funny you talk about demographic's. Canberra has the highest marketshare than any Capital city in Aus. June VFACTS. 135 Holden 133 Mazda 131 Volkswagen. These are Passanger vehicle sales. They are great number. Toyota hurting with low numbers and Ford selling 75. can not remember Subaru but I am not counting the Japanese at the moment due to the stock issues.

                            Anyone in their MK6 GTI just turned off Horse Park Drive into Forde? Don't worry, I saw you coming with your shiny little GTI badge...
