Hi guys, Well I want to introduce myself, some of you will know me, others won't from the VW online communities around.

How I found VWgolf: I was referred to this site on day 1 by a graphic designer mate Nathanael in Hobart. He said that some groovers from the design scene had got themselves some vBull and were going to talk dubs - at that time I was busy and had nothing to add.

Name: Mick

Location: Blue Mountains

Golf Models: MKV TDI 2.0 103KW Sportline BMP

MKI 1975 5 door with KR 16V/5sp conversion Oak Green.

Good on you for creating an online community that supports what you believe in! It seems to be doing great so far.

Hi Chris! I am in Springwood - and do a lot of driving down the M4. Recently moved out here from the Inner West and love it. I have seen a couple of Black 36 wagons, so may have seen you already...

Mick also supplied me with some great wheels off a MkI project. They were in such great shape that they overshadow the car they are now on!

I also have to thank you for the lift in your MkV at the time. It's a very nice setup with the intake, the freer flowing exhaust and the GTI lights. :)

All on my long-term to do list. Plus the TT mkII wheels are a nice combination, too. Good luck with everything!

Thanks for the welcome everyone.

The Pug arrived a short 2 weeks ago, I have not yet but about to start purchasing the mods for it soon. I'll share despite it being off topic from delivery day.

Dean I am the mikinoz from all over the place. However my MacTalk relationship is sour due to some pathetic administration of that site.

I spose I should share here that I run my own business as a corporate Apple consultant, so I can help you crazy designer cats with your Mac gear!

Welcome Mick.
Love the sportline. When I had my comfortline I always wanted to add the GTI darkened housings but never got round to it.
They make the front look a lot more aggressive.

Corporate apple consultant hey? Can you do me a deal with Applecare warranty for my 27" iMac? hehe
:p
