A thread for us to post up cars that we spot on the streets. DO NOT post street names of parked cars!

[Tensixty6]

Spotted six GTI's and one R32 in the carpark of the Pancake Parlour at Doncaster last night. Some really dodgy looking guys could be seen dining at said establishment.

[prae]

Spotted a black Pirelli around 7am this morning doing a u-turn near the Vermont South Bunnings, and was following a black GTI along Elgar Rd around 10ish.

Just Remus tips or did they actually go the muffler? The youtube clip for the remus just sounds deeper and you definitely lose the rasp.

Yeah cos he is still in America on holiday?

Also Ray, let me know next you are rostered on at Donnie. Might pop in if I can be bothered negotiating the nightmare that is the parking there.

[vanboy]

At least at Shoppo they have those nice little lights tell you if theres a carspot! :P Though i'm thinking, if everyons scanning the roof for LEDs, it will actually increase the number of accidents in the carpark. People seem to lose driving ability the instant they enter a shopping centre carpark already..

Ray: Im thinking of popping in, sounds like alot of the old car guys be heading down. Manny's managing the shop?

P.S Finally saw my first R on the road. Nice blue one on Swanston st went past me as I wandering into the city for lunch.

Yeah, they've had those lights in Malaysia years ago when I went for my honeymoon. Of course the carparks there are 5 times the size.

Shoppo still blows for parking and exiting though. I pretty much avoid that place unless I get there early or at a time when there are more spots to choose from.

Van - PM me if you are heading on down, maybe lil GTG at JB Hifi.

[vanboy]

man, there are always so many Rs in the city!

[CSR]

Am starting to see R's everywhere, they must have opened the flood gates in the last month or so :D. Great cars to see, usually an understanding "nod" is exchanged between drivers :)

[ikprojekt]

Went to Chadstone Shopping Centre today and saw a White Mk6 GTI with a vwgolf.net.au sticker at the open area of the carpark, and a Mk5 GTI silver with black detroit wheels in the underground carpark. :)

The dealers seem to have heaps of 5 doors ready for delivery, not surprised, who'd want a 5 door lol.

I've given up on he nod, 95% of R/R32/GTI owners I see are old farts who probably think it's someone they know with a new car hehe

[ikprojekt]

totally not related to VDUBS, but was at chapel st and saw 2 red 458 italias. FUKIN AWESUM!!!!

[ikprojekt]

That's my old school :D. Gym membership for ex-students costs $350 a year and gives you access to an olympic size indoor heated swimming pool and diving board, tennis / hockey courts, two basketball courts and a weights room...That's what I call value :)

Every GTI / R I saw today was driven by an old guy, it's starting to put me off even looking.

GREY R32 VIC No Plates drove on the lane dividers and smashed my driver side mirror as well the car side mirror in front of me on Alexandra avenue in the Melb City this morning. This was in peak hour traffic and at a red light, and since the lanes are wide enough on this particular road, he/she thought they could go on both lanes between two lines of cars to get to the front, much like the motorbikes do normally. Then before i could get plates or rego, lights are green and he/she uses launch control to get off the lights in the fkin city. Luckily, nothing was broken on mine, except for a minor paint scratch under the mirror glass, luckily the indicator and everything else works

WHAT THE FK HAVE SOME PEOPLE COME TO THESE DAYS

[CSR]

Definately more crazies in the city than anywhere else, these people should have their license removed and never re-instated end of story if you obviously can't follow simple driving rules and guidelines.

[GregoInc]

Every GTI / R I saw today was driven by an old guy, it's starting to put me off even looking.

Hey CSR, define 'old guy' will ya... sheesh, us guys with grey hair still like fast cars ya know.

At least we have class and bought a Golf, and not some convertible a.k.a mid-life crisis... :-)

[CSR]

Haha sorry mate by old guy I meant people in what looked like late 60's / early 70's, I doubt anyone here as they didn't seem capable of using computers :D .

[dave-r]

I doubt anyone here as they didn't seem capable of using computers :D .
LOL

Def a few dickheads getting around. The polo got side swiped at like 6am with no one around. Drivers mirror smacked hard, need to replace the whole casing and back cover. Lucky the glass and electronics are still ok. Little bit before that, someone brushed the rear 1/4. Lucky its the missus car, I'd still be in mourning if it was mine.

[GregoInc]

Hehehe... well I figure since I'm using a computer I mustn't be too old... so there must be some hope. LOL

[sir_camel]

Saw a Blue mk5 R32 with plates VWER-32 near Flinders Street Station this morning. Would have been at about 720am.

[CSR]

Saw everything, car barrel rolled OVER the truck and landed on the median strip luckily....My brother was right in front of me and was the car behind the crash and stopped to see if the guy was alright - He was just complaining that he just bought the car so I immediately thought of this forum...One of you!???????

[CSR]

Oh yeah the guy was alright, just sad that his car was so new. The first thing he did apparently was take a picture of his car.

Interestingly no airbags went off at all.

[GregoInc]

Spotted this morning in Melbourne... Golf R in Silver Leaf Metallic on City Road / Alexandra Avenue... took off from the lights to get in front of a truck (nice acceleration in the wet). Last seen at intersection of Punt Road and Swann Street.

[GregoInc]

@Pharkus... must be a bit of a difference between the R32 and the 77 :-)

[Pharkus]

@Pharkus... must be a bit of a difference between the R32 and the 77 :-)

Ahhh yeah...the one77 is always in my garage hence why no one has spotted it yet.

[CSR]

Same thing with my Merc SLR Sterling Moss..Should dust the cobwebs out but just can't get over the R32's exhaust sound :p

[dave-r]

Pfft I'd bring out my JE Camira but parts are getting hard to find and ****s be jealous! So I just get around in my R shitter

[CSR]

Seems like the Monash is having a bad week...This morning was all completely blocked up and they closed the FWY outbond between Burke Rd & Warrigal Rd entry.

I thought there must've been a huge car crash but talking to my mate this evening they say someone jumped off the High St bridge..??

A bit of googling didn't find any news, anyone got any news they may have heard from the radio?

[Pharkus]

If it was a suicide it will not be reported in the news. Very tragic affair =(

[dave-r]

I always seem to miss the problems, but I do get on at Huntingdale and head outbound. Yesterday it was a car park city bound, nfi how people cope sitting in that traffic. I'd go mental.

[crazyray]

spotted Dave on Blackburn Rd around 4.30 last night.....

[vanboy]

Yeah BY was saying it was a jumper... another mate said it was from the High St Bridge. :(

Never seen your car before outbound - what time do you get to work?

I see a few R's on my way home, but closer to high st..

[dave-r]

It varies, 0730-0930 hehe. Really depends on what time I convince myself to roll outta bed :D

[Fab_R]

It varies, 0730-0930 hehe. Really depends on what time I convince myself to roll outta bed :D

Most mornings he gets out of bed at 9:30!!!!

Could not get out of bed earlier than that to save himself!

That's a late departure from work for Dave!!!!

I'm shocked!

[CSR]

I wish I could have that flexibility...I HATE getting up.

Though this morning I managed to fall out of bed at 7:30 and was at Volkspower at 8, checking out a car getting Alcons fitted to it (disappointed it wasn't yours Fab :D). They are a mean looking kit, caliper is huge.

Hey Clem...Yeah mine are still 6-8 weeks away im afraid.

Simon's car which you seen today had special order gloss black calipers ordered from memory...

Mine will be the 365mm 4 pot kit :D

[dave-r]

Getting up early is for ****s! (and people with real jobs, kids, wives, etc)

[CSR]

You mean 355 or 370 4pot? I didn't see a 365.

And yes it was gloss black calipers. Tell Simon I touched his rotor and got a chubby, whoever he is.

[Fab_R]

Getting up early is for ****s! (and people with real jobs, kids, wives, etc)

Yup, 365 kit still with 4pot...

Oh my...you got a chubster Clem... These kits are certainly "chub-worthy" though hey :)

[crazyray]

Spotted Clem this morning on the Monash fwy near Toorak Rd

[CSR]

Good spot, I've been trying to look out for you since you told me you head inbound but I just can't focus on the other lanes of traffic, my eyes get strained!

I think I must have paid about $50 worth of citylink toll fees today, I drove 250km haha taking a customer from QLD around.

Glen Iris -> Richmond -> Dandenong -> Airport -> Glen Iris -> Kings Way -> Dandenong -> Glen Iris

[Pharkus]

Most mornings he gets out of bed at 9:30!!!!

Could not get out of bed earlier than that to save himself!

Probably because it's too comfortable spooning you Fab.

[dave-r]

Haha you bitch but Fab is already at work at like 5am. Would never work out lol

Spotted a RB 3 door with silver tal's north bound on fitzysimmons lane belting it thru the big roundabout.

Got my rotors / pads replaced. I'm squeak free, so happy I'm going to go for a black spur run on the weekend and wear them out again :).

Dean did the install, he didn't have very nice words for Adam's rotors but i'm glad it's only temporary till my BBK comes!

Ah yes Brett, didn't remember his name..Funny guys !

[dave-r]

He doesn't speak highly of DBA either but I'm still taking a punt on a set of 4000's hehe. If they're rubbish I'll just go back to OEM!

Interesting as that was where I was planning on getting my rotors and brake lines installed...

[CSR]

Dean did a great job and good to chat to while waiting. The Hawk pad sensors weren't the right ones so he soldered the original one back on, took him 5 minutes, real pro.

[DeanCorp]

Why didn't he like them? Probably because he didn't sell them to you ;)

[CSR]

No reason for that, he doesn't sell rotors anyway except OEM and BBK's...

He said they aren't vaned for cooling and heavier than OEM. He's probably right, they did feel quite heavy, but didn't have a new set of OEM rotors to compare it to. I don't mind, I will have a BBK in 2 months :)

Of course they are not the best, but I can safely say they will be better than stock :)

Errr! dont u hate non car mates! They just dont understand :(

ditto!

spotted a UG R32 at the tyre factory ballarat rd yesterday afternoon!

[CSR]

Errr! dont u hate non car mates! They just dont understand :(

They don't at all. Especially when they're 20 years old, can't afford a nice car and so anything car related for them is gay since they don't have the cash to play.

Thought I was gay because I didn't floor it through speed bumps and because I took a minute longer to find a car park away from trashy cars with higher tendencies to hit me with their doors.
And then to top it all off, while they remind me about how long I take to park, they make me walk out of the building to join them for a smoke which took 10 minutes. Fuck I hate smokers.

[dave-r]

Just punch them in the **** and tell them to get a taxi

[Adzy]

They sound familiar to some tossers i USED to hang out with.. everything that they cant comprehend is gay.
I'm with Dave punch them in the ****!! Tosser non car ppl grrrr! :D

[Adzy]

Oh and today I spotted........ A CAR!

[VDUBNUB]

Spotted a Blue Mk5 R32 with p plates last night on princes hwy around about 12am turning right onto warrigul rd, have a feeling it was somebody on here? the driver was wearing glasses if that helps?

I was in the white Evo 5 ;)

[CSR]

[VDUBNUB]

I couldn't tell you to be honest, I only really saw it from behind and side on. The P plate was in the bottom right hand corner of the rear window which had pretty dark tint on it. The driver had what looked to be short hair, was wearing glasses, looked like an over-all sensible fella!

[dave-r]

LOL that sounds awfully like Clem's description of his panel beater!

[VDUBNUB]

Just checked out CSR's R32 thread, i can confirm that it was NOT his car. The R32 i saw had standard plates and rims on it :)

[CSR]

LOL that sounds awfully like Clem's description of his panel beater!

Rofl did I describe him to you? If not..it's actually true. He does wear glasses!! and has short hair! don't know about the sensible part, he's a bloody wog from the south of Italy can't be all that sensible.

Was a joke anyway mate, could've been Nathan though, we bumped into him on prinny at around that time. Not sure about the P plates...

Does Fab work or does he just tour the different tuners each day?

In actual fact I am working from home today and getting a lot more done because of it. Just checking now and then on this forum to see what's happening. Didn't realise I would get an update from Fab on the progress of my car!

Less distractions at home ---> more work done. I have been at it since 7am this morning!!!

[GregoInc]

Spotted today... Silver Mk5 R32 in East Melbourne... and I have to admit (as much as it pains me to) it sounded awesome (I think it had a tricked exhaust). But credit where credit is due, it did sound good.
