VWMA needs to have resto-custom/oldschool/.vwrods etc.People need to see a variety .Not just the same old boring cars over and over.😍lol

VWMA Editor ·

Same old boring cars? Over and over?

I haven't repeated a story yet and got more variety than you can poke a VW dipstick at.

Purple Martin ·

Well I love it! Can't wait for the next one 😀

Love the look of the the mk2 Golf. I used to have one, still got a soft spot for them.:thumb

HotRodMatt ·

There is so much in the Mk2.

Totally changed my opinion of them. Alex has done an excellent job it! One of my favourites for a long time - always thoght they were a good car but have never seen them come up so well as this one.

Fossil ·

Geeze been so busy forgot the time and only 10 days to go - can't wait for Ed#7

VWMA Editor ·

There was a slight technical hitch with the classifieds. This has now been repaired.

All's cool!

Hey everyone, Gary from Wolfsburg has some special wheel deals. They didn't quite make this issue, so they've been posted on the VWMA website until Issue#8.

Check them out!

Along those lines I have had a few forum members tell me they want to see cars like mine in there. I guess it is one of the most modified vw's out there.

I email the editor with pics and stories but didn't hear anything back. The offer is still there.

frenzix ·

kustomkool, i love the dave chapelle show

kustomkool ·

Man those are some damn cheap prices ,getting radars yehar,Frenzix Dave Chappelle is no doubt the king of comedy.

VWMA Editor ·

I've got the pics and story. Magazine mathematics at play though - quarterly publication, Aussies starved of home grown reading material, too many stories - means there's a bit of a que. Michelle Burke with the camper in this issue waited patiently for six months. It will happen. I'm still sorting through all the VW shows and contacts from 2004, including the Nationals and the forum!!

Baja Wes ·

ok that's cool. I just got no response so figured you didn't get it or weren't interested.

Well when the time comes contact me, I have heaps and heaps of photos of it. I would burn a CD for you.

Well Done Craig,
We are lucky Your came along .....
We had no VW Magazine for some time....
Lots of people tried.....
Some glossy, some crappy, but none the less still about VWs....
I hope everything is going well for You.... with the Magazine....
We'd hate to lose another One!!!
Best of Luck

Thanks guys.

Glad you like.

Publishing is a tough game, but my head is still above water. Makes it easier when I also enjoy driving what I am writing about.

Oh, and today at the Shannons Historical Race Meet, my Kombi Double Cab collected Best VW Kombi in the Show and Shine. This is my first trophy, and I'm stoked.

Fossil ·

Congratulations Craig on the trophy - can imagine how you felt. So where was the meet on ?

VWMA Editor ·

The Shannons Historical Racing and Classic Car Festival at Qld Raceway. I had people all over the Double Cab all day - they'd never seen one before. I've attached a pic (couldn't help myself).

Fossil ·

Sweet as Craig - nice car bra now no more or at least lesser stone chips🤪

Fossil ·

Wish I'd know about it but then it was probably posted somewhere and as I'm not here every day no doubt missed it 🤪

greenbug70 ·

nice one thanks for the efforts, its amasing you meet people that have vws or used to and you tell them about forums mags etc . they are surprised at what is going on.

vw54 ·
