06' DOTVW 26 November Cruise

Whatever, I'm easy...

But i'm going to need to organise a freakin calendar, because there are sooooo many vee dub events on in november!

I don't think i have enough money for tyres and petrol for all that, let alone a new alternator belt because that snapped last week (long story, and yes it was new when i did the conversion!!)

What other events are on? Is your alternator offset? i think mine is it seems to snap belts every 6months or so lol.

But getting back on track what do people think of my idea? and we need more suggestions as I don't want it to be all stuff that I've come up with??

Come on blokes or come the date it will all fizzle. Input now please.

Ausgolfers deal seems ok to me. Lets settle on something and stick to it.
Cheers, Andrew

The tensioner cuts through the belt, but when doing the conversion i used a mixture of 8v and 16v parts...

I feel better if it happens to you too!

Don't think I'm biased just because I live there,

but to be honest it's close to the city (15-20mins) and for people who are from the western suburbs, travelling all the way out to the south east 2 days in a row would be a killer.

Yes?? No??

I'm all for the idea ausgolfer.

My problem is I don't want to be driving around on a trade plate(even though it is legal to do so 24/7) as it's on loan for the weekend. That's if I can get my car going in time.
If the GTI's a no go then yes I'm in. I'll probably stay in Kew for the night.
The rusty relic will have to do for another year.
