VW Meet: Dee Why - Palm Beach?

Claudia · 2004-02-03T10:17:11+00:00

Since Christmas last year I have been very busy and not found any time to log on to the www.aussieveedubbers.com But I am back now and I would like to organise a VW meet sometime. I am from the Northern Beaches and it would be cool if we could start maybe in Dee Why and then drive to Palm beach? Last year I tried to organise a meeting like this before christmas, but everybody was busy and I ended up .....doing nothing 🙁 Who would be interested to come on Saturday 21 February? Or would Saturday 14 Feb. be better? klienclaudia@hotmail.com Hope to finally meet some VW owners and perve on some nice cars! 😀 Claudia, 30, Northern Beaches, VW Beetle 1966

That is right Kai. It is already planned anyway to have a stop at New Port Arms after the trip from Long Reef to Palm beach.

My VW Beetle has a little problem at the moment. I think I need a new clutch! 🙁
I really hope I will find a repair place that can fix it until next weekend! Oterwise I have to get a ride with one of you guys, because I do not want to miss out on my first VW meet.

If you can't get it fixed, just show up at the car park and get in one of our cars.. no worries. It would be a shame to organise this and not be able to go.

Hi there!

Just wanted to remind you guys again of the VW Meet.

See you at Long Reef on Sun 22 Feb, at 11 am.

See you all there,
Claudia

PS: My VW is fixed again, it was not the clutch that needed to be replaced. It was the clutch cable...still, another $ 470,-- ..it never ends with the repairing!

Well the meet went ahead as planned and it was great to meet some peeps from the forum.

To quote Waltermitty from another post and save me re-typing, lazy bugger that I am:

We didn't make it to the Arms either as the little one needed to go home for a sleep but the others went and are quite possibly still there 🙂

Nice rides, be good to put names and forum names to Dubs again as I have a memory problem :o

Thanks Claudia for organising and for all who attended to making it a great morning. Will have to plan another with a picnic lunch somewhere maybe?

Cheers...Scott

Count me in next time but Saturdays are better then I can bring the misses for the full cruise and relax at the end instead of rushing off.

To all the people who were at the VW Meet "Long Reef". Thank you all for turning up. It was great to meet you guys!

My friend Tuncay, who came along with me, took some picutres. Hopefully he sends them to me soon and I will try to put them into the forum....🙁 I better figure out "HOW". I could not put a picture of my VW into my profile yet (but not my fault, the computer at home was stuffed for months...viruses!).

Am leaving for Tasmania next Monday for a week, but aftr that I am ready for a picnick with all the cool VW drivers and their georgeous cars!!!
