Well, this is how it goes...I thought I'd send a couple of pics of VWRX to Volksworld to possibly get the car in readers rides...and well, they want to do a feature...

Spoke with Ivan - the editor - not long ago. Is not 'if' but 'when'...

The magazine has a distribution through the UK, USA, Japan and most of Europe.

What more to say then speechles...

Now to organise those pics...

Congratulations!!
Seems the English are starting to realize that there is some awesome stuff going on over here. A mate has recently had a 6 page feature in Classic Ford for his Rat Cortina and they are always on the hunt for more Aussies.
Good luck with it all!

Welll done,
don't forget to tell them that you are all the way up there and not in the big smoke on the east coast!
Now, if you could get claire martin to change the speed limit again (back up) you could tell them how fast it can go 😉

Nice work Reub. The magazines should embrace the non-vw engined cars more. They are becoming more and more popular. I'm jealous 🙂

Just a quick update...

Just got of the phone with the magazine editor and he is extremely happy my mate Tim's photos...

The feature may be in as little as 6 weeks depending on receipt of photos via CD. (of course that means 3 months for Australia though 😂 )

Whoo hoo

Reub,
Just to let you know that I picked up the latest copy of Volksworld today (December Issue) and there's a picture of your car in the 'next month' section so it will be out on November 28th 👍 👍

Goog stuff Reub - looks like you had more luck than me - I had been promised the ragtop would get into print "next month", "didn't have room this month, should be in a couple months".....etc etc etc. Never made it, so well done - can't wait to see it in the mag, well deserved!
