hey guys, thought i might share with you my first EVER vw experience. as you might have read ive been building up a sort of baja over the past year and have finally got it to a point where i can show of the massive horsepower my little 1600 puts outs. haha but seriously i was surprised by how quick the little thing went!

It started out with dad saying "just up the driveway and back mate you havnt got a license" which obviously turned into "can i take it on the road?" dad reluctantly gave a sort of yes and so i was gone!! half way down the road the glove box flew open and we were covered in fibreglass dust. haha

i'll put videos up soon if i can

haha. I lost my virginity and got hooked after a single drive in a 1500 chop top back yard bush basher dub.

Learnt to drive manual in it first time eva for 30 mins in it, then went on a rampage.... The bastard went on a BIG sideways fast drift in their turf and wouldn't straighten up haha, almost hit a tree, survived none the less! Then i was hooked :P

👍

Look forward to doing that when i finally get my baja on the road.. one day.

Bring on the pics!!!

I remember losing both forms of virginity. I think they may have left me in the same year.

Also remember even more fondly losing my kombi virginity. I've never wanted a beetle as a daily driver since then.

And also the first time I drove a car with real power and almost looped it without trying. My kombi wasnt finished so I put the donk (which was completely painted black :puke) into the mates type three that I lost my VW virginity in. Many more ponies than my Telstar which was front drive. Quite a surprise.
