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...

Congrats dude, it just goes to show if you put in thousands of hours someoen will want it in their mag .. top effort, I once got a car in print myself, but it was the trading post and only a 1 line article ....

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!

hey mate, congrats on the mag!!

good to see an aussie dub in an international mag!!

the car and your effort definately deserve it

Good stuff DUDE

Congrats! That's fantastic. You've produced something unique which aint easy. Can't wait to see the article.

Fantastic Man! Fly the Flag For Australia

Steve

Fantasic mate !! how are you going to get your head through the door Don't forget to tell them about your mate's rides . Are you doing to race (DRAG) at one of the coming up meetings ? Are you writing story as well .
Cheers Dak-A-Tak

yeah there will be a bit more Aussie and Kiwi stuff in international mags soon

Up there kazalie

Thanks again guys...
As anyone who knows me will know I'm quite humble about it all...but am stoked, especially a subie bug making the grade.
Just gotta organise those pics and it will be there...

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

Wooooow Reub, congrats! I can't wait to see it in the mag

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

Top work mate!! Well deserved!!

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

Rich

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!

Al

Thanks Rich...will be cool to see. Still can't believe it to be honest...
And cheers Al. I would have thought the rag would have been a sure thing.

Nice, can't wait to see the beast in all her glossy glory Still one of the scariest cars I've ever been in, but it might have just been your driving
