Some of you may have not been able to log into Kombi Club lately.

Unfortunately, this site is no longer working.

A couple of dedicated forum members have started a new site

http://www.kombiclubaustralia.com 

So - all you previous member, please log in a re-register

Any potential members, those that have a strong leaning to the Type 2 variety of VW's come and log in and join up

Some information on where the Kombi Club came/originated from -

* This place ..... yes AVD was the birthplace of the Kombi Club ..... thanks to the efforts of ClassicVW (Pacific) - Roy by name
* 22/01/2005 a thread was started with the idea of a "Type 2 Club - Bay/Split - SE Qld"
* 27/02/2005 following significant interest a POLL Thread was set up for the club name with much contention about the name
* 22/03/2005 Thread with formalised name Kombi Club Australia was started

Things working well with events organised and attendance @ events with Kombi Konvoys becoming popular ways for a Kruize to events via threads posted here on AVD.

Behind the scenes though tension was building with Roy in relation to post deletion (non compliance with rules re price for goods being posted and threads in the incorrect section being moved for his business CVWP) and sponsorship banner with Mods & Administration making every endeavor to keep things calm & peaceful in doing their jobs.

* 20/05/2005 Thread started "Kombi Club Registration" with details required for registering for the on-line forum Kombi Club
* 25/06/2005 after a few hiccups with setting up & member database the site was deemed stable enough to go live.
* 13/03/2006 ClassicVW (pacific) terminated membership or was banned ..... by this time many members on here had signed up for access to the Kombi Club Forum.

{A search for posts by CassicVW (pacific) resulted in finding all Roy's posts being removed/deleted, however, threads were still available to view other members posts + my recollection of events}

Many are unaware of the history & information on where the Kombi Club originated from - it just didn't happen as some believe.
