Dubs By the Pub 2004 Trip Report
Hi All, well dubs went off again this year and congrats to BLBVW for another great event. If you can all post your feedback and Pics in this thread it

Great to see so many photos. We jumped in at Burpengary BP and parked in the carpark as we only had 1/2 hour to spend there. We needed longer to
have a good look around - next year for sure!!!

I had fun, I thought it might be cooler this year, but it was hot as always! But we didn't have an afternoon thunderstorm which was a good thing.
I met a few people, that I hope email me so I can keep contact.
I met a guy with a kombi that has the 1.8lt version of my V6 in the back of it, I really wanted to check it out but unfortunately didn't find
it.
Then there was the 1UZ-FE Lexus V8 powered kombi, ohhh yeah. Very nice.
And plus a new Baja I haven't seen before. A light blue one with country buggy running gear. It was very nice and I thought he might win best
Baja, but lucky for me I did instead  , thanks people!
Good work BLBVW people, a good show as always. :thumb

Yeah good day overall i was a bit confused in the different sections we were supposed to go in, being my first vw show i wasn't sure, thought the
front gate people could have asked some questions about the cars so to be put in the right sections instead of just assuming what it should go in but
i will know for next time to ask.................
