Hi im Gareth i moved here from the uk about 3 years ago i have been in to vws for about 10 years my boss at the time had a 12sec beetle i spent half my apprentice years working on it!
i was addicted to vw's after a weekend at bug jam 2001 watching a beetle from the line turn in to a little dot in the distance within 10sec that was it i had to get me a vw!
First was a 67 beetle then a polo classic, golf mk2 driver, my fave mk2 16v black 2 door avo coilovers heaps of other good bits.
While i have been down under i have owned a 68 bug which i clamed a trophy at the local german auto fest for best modified.
The beetle has now been sold and been replaced by a 2 door mk1 golf that i picked up a couple of months ago mods are well under way coilovers,bucket seats,wheels, 20vt beeing preped to be droped in in next couple of months.
Happy to find a good scene here:) its good to know there are other die hard dubbers here to!to should have got on here ages ago thanks Gaz

Welcome Gaz!

And I gather you are none other than that bloke who I unintentionally pestered about the arrival of that part weekly for a fortnight, whilst your boss was overseas? :biggrin:

Cheers for the help, and look forward to seeing you around! :driver:
