Andrew from Perth (South of the River)
2007 UG R32 6MT
Found this via Golfmkv.com

[SUGA]

Welcome Andrew! :)

[Frenchie]

Nice to see you on this forum Andrew..

[R32Perth]

Thanks Guys. It is much more quiet than golfmv.com but i am sure it will pick up

[Frenchie]

Very early days !!
Give it time, I think one of the key to making this forum work is contribution from all members.

Hi guys

Marty im from Perth (swanbourne). Just purchased my dads 08 GT sport TDi. Probably get a tune for it once the new car warranty runs out, unless a tune won't affect this?

The car is stock standard, fully optioned but without the sunroof. Its white in colour, great car to drive. Previously owned a modified forester, and coming from that to the golf, it still feels like a great car to drive.

Cheers

[Frenchie]

Great choice of car Marty and welcome on board...

In regards to warranty VW will usually not cover -

Direct problem related to modification but will honour all warranty work unrelated.

So to answer your question you should be fine..

[Jig]

Welcome aboard

[ml16]

Sweet action, looks like she will be a stocker for a while, but will still enjoy it none the less. I must say its a totally different car compared to the subaru, fwd is quite fun and the torque from low down in the revs is rather cool.

[SUGA]

Welcome Marty!

Congrats on the purchase, lets see some pics :)

[Tinto]

Hello, another Martin from WA here :)
Thanks for the referral, Frenchie. It was most timely!

I drive an 09 Pirelli GTI in graphite blue with a few mods from APR, KW, BFI and Work.
Just picked up a 200sx for track duties, but still love my golf, you can't beat refinement with power.

[bigwill]

welcome tinto!

[Frenchie]

Welcome Marty and Martin!!

@Tinto - great to have you on board, look forward some your build thread !

[Steve]

Hi guys,

Steve checking in. Representing the mature section of the demographics.

Running an 08 .:R32, DSG, dark dark tint, flapper mod and too many kms on the clock.

Referred by Tinto (cheers mate). Hopefully this site will be a bit more interesting than some other sites that have turned to garbage over the last couple of days.

Good to see some familiar faces.

Hi mark, im pretty sure i have seen you driving around the area before. Love the BBS rims, had a set in 19" on my old commodore :| Would love to get some on my new car, but will wait a while as its just about to cop some new rubber anyway. Once factory warranty is out i might do a few little things and try and hit the track and have some fun :D

Do any other WA members track their dubs? I used to track my forester out at AHG/RAC

[zz2]

cheers mate! we have done a couple at AHG track days but no one has organised anything lately. i would love to get it onto a propper track like barbagello sometime in the future though.

in the mean time im thinking of organising a WA VW photoshoot/ get together. we have done them before.. usually go around UWA and the city at night getting cool night time shots...

also next time you see me give me a wave or something! my old man sometimes uses the car so dont be alarmed if you see a 60 year old guy behind the wheel haha

[ml16]

Oh sweet as, well i'm keen for a skidpan day at AHG, or even the long track during the week if i get a day off uni/work.

Those night shots are awesome, would be happy to come along to a shoot/get together. My old man might drive mine a few times here and there until his Tiguan arrives too. I'm going to get some [XX XX WA] plates for it white on black background to match the colour scheme, might be a bit more recognisable then!

[SUGA]

nice pics!
nice colour combo ;)

That Blue GT on the left looks really cool, must be an awesome guy ;)

[Steve]

you can make out the colour?

Self praise is no recommendation...but in your case...it's a version of blue, and you get my vote!

[Paul_OH]

you can make out the colour?


Lucky guess? >D

Hi all,

My name is Hooman. I live in Perth and just took delivery of my new GTI. I bought it as part of the 50% Government stimulus package just as a drive car but I love it so much I have not driven my other car at all.

Love to meet some of you crazy VW heads and go for a cruise. Sounds like you all have a bit of fun.

Hooman

P.S. this is not my first VW, I owned a VR6 in the late 90's and also am now restoring a 1967 Split screen Kombi.

[SUGA]

Welcome Hooman! Congrats on your new GTI!
I love Kombi's! Would be awesome to see your progress on the restoration project! :)

[zz2]

welcome Hooman! we have gotta organise anothert GTG soon.

be sure to post up the pics of your kombi resto!

[R32Perth]

Perth GTG sounds like a good idea

[ml16]

GTG sounds good, would be keen to meet some new people and put faces to names etc.

[Tinto]

The no limits track nights are on every month at barbagallo for those chasing a track fix.
Numbers are limited(but they are struggling to fill the numbers they need!), I'm hoping to be headng along in the 200sx this month.

http://nolimitevents.com/

[Steve]

Oh Tinto...what did you go and do that for?

*sigh*..... Chris wanted to run the .:R at the track....wonder if she is still keen.

Standby.

[ml16]

Can't get to no limits nights, i train for hockey on thursday nights. If you see a black XT forester, that is my mate Burke. It has some decent power and puts some of the other cars on the track to shame. PB is a 58 around the short track i believe.

Ill be up for RAC skidpan or track there. Otherwise too busy with work/uni/sport on weekdays :(

[Paul_OH]

I'd be keen for another AHG/RAC/DTEC track day probably in May/June when the weather's cooler and before the rain - the TSI despises the heat!

[Frenchie]

Nice to have you on board Mr Hooman !!

[Inlimbo]

Howdy Folks
