Welcome to the Puddle
Due popular demand we have opened a new section to help cover the growing popularity of Factory watercooled VW.. If it grows then we will build sub
sections to suit ..
Till then, enjoy your bricks and wedges :party

Mr Brad, can you please confirm or deny a rumore I hear that the cooling fan in a "T2.5" is different to a fan in a "T2" (air cooled 2L motors
that is)
Cheers,
Richard

Awesome and i only got a mk1 golf 4 weeks ago. took it for its first run on teh track on the weekend :thumb it over steers almost as much as the
beetle and so much easier to drive hard, jsut point and floor it, none of this balancing on the throttle stuff.
I have no sympathy for my car, only the wallet that pays for it!
Go hard or go home!!!!

Some GTI's were also private imports. I think someone from the vortex photgraphed your car in Sydney a year or so ago. I was asked to justify its
existance... Must be the only GT around.
