VW Trends August 2004 - GFK
Another nice month for the not often bought VW Trends..
Nice write up of German Folks Klub in SoCal.. Love the Coral Red beast..
I was happy with the accessory collection thing there too.. Very nice.. I was pleasantly surprised to find I had a fair few of em.. I have 10 of em,
and thats after I have sold my Beetle.. wierd.
Some nice feature cars, including Paul Knights sweet rod, and a couple of the GFK rides.
A sweet thing. |

Very good issue, the GFK cars rock.
I just wish they would stop repeating articles from
Volksworld and vice versa, it really ...... me!
Especially when they contradict each other!
Anyway........... cool cars.:cool

Story sharing has been going on in other motoring mags for quite some time now, it's because all the journalists are now freelance and not contracted
to the individual mag's!
I think it's poor form and should be stopped. But I spose if that happened then most of the publications would go down, it's a catch 22
situation.
VW trends is not worth the money, way to much advertising, and poached storys. Hot VW's is even worse! Ultra, Volksworld and AVD get my money, I read
the others secondhand.

thanks for all the kind words about the club guys. that only showed the guys from californina. because the rest of us ( Arizona, Texas, Oklahoma)
couldnt make it. Trends isnt my mag of choice either. but hell, a feature is afeature. lets not get picky.

For sure man.. It was a good thing.. Only a matter of time before there is an Australian chapter..
For interests sake, I get UltraVW, HotVW's, VolksWorld, and the AVWM. I get VW Trends if it's contents appeal, and I am feeling wealthy.
