I was back in Adelaide a couple of weeks ago and saw a yellow Mk1 that I think maybe owned by someone on here. Greenhill Rd near King William Rd, I think on Sunday 17/6. Saw another Mk 1 while I was in town - I think I saw more in those four days in Adelaide than I have in four months in Melbourne!

There was a cruise on that day, and Golfer_76 (http://www.vwwatercooled.org.au/forums/members/golfer_76/) (I'm pretty sure it's him!) came along with his Mk1. We were driving east along Greenhill Rd at about 11am I think? There were also several Mk6 GTIs, a Mk5 R32, an S4 Avant, and several Renaults and Focuses.

Aside: That Mk1 is a beast. Looks completely stock, goes like stick with an (IIRC) rebuilt ~140hp motor. Awesome car. :cool:

That's who I was thinking it was but couldn't remember a name. Looked very nice and has P plates I think. He was heading west and it was afternoon. And now come to think of it, it was probably Friday 15/6. I was in an average 2000 Corolla so I wouldn't have stuck out at all (would rather be driving my Mk5 but I flew over so it was left parked at Tullermarine Airport).

Thanks for that comment adam :)
Nah shes just a stock 1.6 with a weber on it at the moment, suspension is far from stock though. When i come up with the funds it'll be getting a 1.8 with ~140 flywheel hp

And greasykitchen. There is another yellow mk1 in adelaide with a few blue patches on it and hes on his p's

It was a blue R32 that first turned me on to VW a few years back and now I have my own Golf I couldn't imagine driving anything else

[VR6 STORM]

Hi there Huss,

That was me and my MK1. You should have come over for a chat!
Have had her 19 years now and bought her over when we emigrated 5 years ago (along with my Corrado VR6 Storm).
I built a BRM 2 Litre motor for it on an 8V solid lifter block. It has the Cosworth forged pistond and long crank. Also a Turbo Technics T3 Turbo kit and an Emerald ECU with custom bult loom running a MAP sensor system, distributor less coil pack, mapped boost, G60 Injectors, Trigger wheel and 3 stage selectable maps. Custom intercooler based on Turbo Technics design, and very big Mocal oil cooler. Exhaust is custom built staninless system with ceramic coated downpipe. Also has a Scirocco ACD code gearbox with the bigger drive shafts, a Peloquin ATB differential, 280mm Corrado G60 front brakes, rear disc conversion and mk2 servo conversion. Best thing is she looks pretty stock from the outside but make 175BHP and 200ft/lbs of torque at 8lbs of boost, so is no slouch!
Suffice to say it was not easy to get through Regency, but got there in the end, so is all engineered and leagal with documents always carried in the glove box to prove it
Cheers
VR6 Storm

Saw a 4 door around 8.30pm intersection of Sudholz Rd and North East, may have been the same one?!? didn't get a proper look as the dude in front of me was all over the road going into the servo, but I think it had some ATS wheels on it.

I didn't catch much of a side profile. I think the guy came out of the booze shop so probably local this way.. but maybe he had a dinner up north. :-)

[phaeton]

Yeah I know whos car that is, it may be going to Day of the VW depending on rear spoiler which has been ordered via international means.

[tigger73]

Certainly looks pretty clean when it's debadged. If you didn't know what you were looking at you'd think it was a 3 series (from the rear).

I guess the towbar could be used to mount bikes on the back - don't like your chances of dropping them in the boot easily.

Yeah I guess I hadn't thought of that - probably makes sense for a bike carrier. Can't imagine it would be rated for much more than pulling an unloaded trailer...
