First time at of these, very enjoyable day. Good turn out of watercooled cars, all looking a bit lonely on the hill away from the air cooled, but by choice against the shady trees. Photo of the winning contestants' choice air cooled, my choice to win.

I arrived quite late, had something else on & cars were leaving as I arrived.[Next year I am planning to arrive earlier.] I had a quick walk around before any more left. That blue dub had beautiful straight panels & certainly stood out. Another blue beetle had an original factory sunroof. I haven't seen one close up before. I spent the rest of the time talking to strangers who were real enthusiasts. Finally spent time in the Solitaire tent with Brenden, Ben & Michael, the great salesman who sold me our Mk5 Golf TDI over 11 years ago. I had a good day.

Photos of all the cars entered are up on the VW Club South Australia Facebook page.

I should also have said it was a well run event and I felt that the watercooled entrants were equally included/welcomed by the club.
