2ltr carb...but comes with a spare engine and gearbox...I bags the g'box though.

I wouldn't be surprised if someone of the forum used to own it..it's got empi stickers and a few other VW stickers on it.

penguin nice bike :cool

kafer I bet your son was pissed off but an early lesson if he wants to keep driving.....I'd die if I couldn't drive...can't imagine it....don't want to

Mandie...the tourists are in town....or the young ones...we've been busy and I've been at our travel centre in St Kilda

BUT the young ones are all making their way to Sydney for New Year....things have booked out up there....I've been getting them all around Oz......booking flight into Sydney from any direction cheap is impossible now....

They have no idea how big Australia is...they all do the Great Ocean Rd to Adelaide up to Alice...The Rock...then want to get to Cairns...then Sydney for NYE...it's a well worn track

We are getting a lot of older people, as well as young ones, walking in and looking for St Kilda accomm...or touristy info...so they are in town again...lets hope for nice sunshine on Sunday and you should have a good day at the market :thumb

Nup...not going away at Chrissy...Sue and I were planning trip to Indonesia for 20th wedding anniversary but have been warned off. Either have to wait or find somewhere else.

Boat is on the grass in backyard ot the moment ...fixing up trailer...will have it finished tomorrow though.
River is a bit murky from recent rain.

How about yourself ?

Unfortunatly this is my busy time of year so i have to work all the way through the summer.Even have a market on Boxing Day & New Years day so won't be partying to hard on NYE.We usually head off camping between Xmas & NY but with our trip up north afew months back & trying to get the splitty on the road i can't miss any markets as i need the $$$$$$$$.My brothers just finished building an awesomr house down at the beach an hour from Melb so i'll probably head down there for afew odd days herre & there,have a relax & do some fishing.

kafer when is your anniversary? Jakarta is the hot spot.....lets hope they don't hit Bali again..just stay outta the bar areas/heavy touristy places if you go...there are other nice areas

or

Borneo is popular now n nice....

Thailand/Phuket....

or Malaysian Airlines have some good deals in Malaysia....well Borneo is one...Langkawi would be nice for an anniversary...but not as cheap as Bali

The Pacific has some nice spots...and very relaxing...but not a shoppers paradise...nice to get away from it n chill.....Virgin have good flights now...or Air Pacific....Cook Islands good for anniversary

Virgin also have a great domestic sale on now for flights from mid January to late May....Darwin...Perth... Tassie...Cairns...Sydney

Goodness...I've got time off after Chrissy and wanting to take a holiday before I go for a new job...would ideally like to go for about a month...wanting to scuba but can't decide where...gotta think about the season n whether the water will be good...I think I'll have to draw a staw the way I'm going...I keep finding new places...yesterday it was the Red Sea n do some touring in Eygpt while there...I procrastinate too much...Fiji is always good...relaxed...totally two different places experience n price wise :duh

Was owned by a vw freak panel beater hence the under coat here and there will just touch up with original colour for now.

Needs some work in the engine dept after the drive home...hopefully just a good tune up will fix it...fingers crossed.

It is not a cheap destination...you will be paying in USD...I went to Pohnepei Micronesia...it's wonderful but you are paying the same as if here

Palau is west of Micronesia and decided to become independant rather than join The Federated Staes of Micronesia...it's part of the Caroline Islands...It's south of Guam

RT fare from Brisabane to Koro Palau $1252 + taxes...with Qantas to Cairns then Continental to Koro....you can have one stop over for the entire journey

....well having a quiet morning at work...lol

Ben's kombi is very sweet....he must be rapt
