G'day to all in VW Land
Hello to all in VW land and I look forward to driving you all crazy with my questions as soon as I get my hands on an early bug.
I have not previously owned a VW so I will be asking some questions which may seem obvious to the more experienced so please go easy on me.
Regards
LittleO:thumb |

Welcome to the forum LittleO and good luck with your entry into the wonderful world of dubs.
Just a friendly suggestion. If you plan on doing any work on the car yourself, or even if you just want to learn about it, buy yourself a service
manual now. This will answer alot of the basic questions. It may be worthwhile for you to join a club in SA as they are a great way of finding cars
for sale.
Ain't nothin' like the wind in your hair.

Well thanks heaps people, it's always nice to feel welcome.
PurpleT3, I have already begun my purchasing of workshop manuals as I like nothing more than to read before I put a spanner to work.
I do like to do almost all mechanical work myself especially the stuff I feel confident about.
Joining a club is on the list of things to do also as well as search Ebay for more reading material.
Many Thanks
LittleO |

56ovaltine,
the best place to ask that is in the tech section, either of the first two areas. I have a beetle and a type 3, so I am no use to you. Most of the
peopel won't look in here for a technical question,
cheers
