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,

        I recall seeing a Mk3 Golf polycarbonate body on the old VR6.org forum - one of the guys had it painted up in Ginster yellow to match his GTI VR6 - looked pretty convincing : )

        So yes - someone made polycarbonate Mk3 bodies. Pretty sure it was for Tamiya also.

        Could also have been sold as a European Mk3 16v GTI or American GTI VR6 replica - had the euroflares/deeper lip etc.

          I have a few petrol (and electric) RC cars and can highly reccommend the Revo

          For a small road car (which is useless on all but dead flat surfaces) I have this one:


          Otherwise it's a buggy:



          And the Revo:


          I have used to hunt round for VW shells and have a Kombi for the road car and was looking at some Beetle shells for the Revo. There really isn't a lot otherwise.

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

              It is really hard to get - quite a collectors item. You can get it but it's tooo costly.

                I have the Mk3 GTI, I originally ordered the VR6, but the GTI turned up... still wouldn't mind a VR6 and am eyeing off the mini champ MkIII too
