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,

      No Mk3 no care


      Anyone happen to have seen a Mk3 Golf model?? I keep meaning to hunt down the minichamps one (which is about machtbox size and about $65)

      If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you.

        I think the model shops should have Mk3s in stock mate.
        I have a few mk3s in my collection, not sure what brand.
        Try www.biante.com.au
        I am subscribed to them and recieve weekly emails with specials. Bought a great 1:18th Porsche 917 last week.

          I think I have trawled there before (and lots of other places). I have a Mk3 GTI plastic model kit already, it was supposed to be the VR6 kit but they got the wrong one, still it's something. Mind you I will most likely never get round to building it... the Karmann Ghia I started 5 years ago isn't quite finished yet

          I should get down to the local place and get them to order me the minichamps one. Funny that I haven't even seen a matchbox Mk3 or one of the other cheapie brand ones on eBay

          If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you.

              They were in the Polo section. The MkVs are 5-door models and different colours (black, red, silver & blue). GTIs in 3-door.

                here is the Golf V GTI from the (funnily enough) 'Golf' section vs the so called "Polo". the body shape and lines look exactly the same

                i'm sure however, if you ordered a Polo you would be sent a Polo. if VW sent you a Golf instead of a Polo you'd be questioning their knowledge .

                  Actually, Rhys ... I think the silver 'Polo' looks a bit 'stockier' than the golf ... bit more depth to the windows.

                    Top one looks like an R to me.
                    Definately not polo lights on it.
                    Deeper eh Dave??? Woohoo!!!!
