New GTI day in Melbourne

[gtimk5]

On the 20th of August there is a Murcotts drive day being held at Sandown Raceway. VW melbourne dealers are organising it and I have been invited to bring my APRd GTI over for it. I am not sure if they are allowing people in to check it out but it should be the largest gathering of Mk5 GTIs and Polos ever held in Oz. The numbers are limited to 50 cars and it is a day for Murcotts driving school to teach people just what their vehicle driving aids will do.
I will be boating across on the friday night so maybe we can have some sort of get together while I am there. Might be a hectic weekend, not sure what else is going on that weekend. I think I have to go to Volkspower on the Saturday arvo.
Be good to see some of you guys at some stage over the weekend though.
Boat gets in around 8.30 am I think. Cheers, Andrew

Looking forward to the weekend. Should be fun. I want to see some different wheels to make up my mind.

I wonder if they'd allow the iconic old ones in for a bit of a comparo, shame my car is in bits at the moment, but would still be great to see it.

For sure Golfman! There is talk of a barbecue at Volks on the Saturday arvo. Love to catch up and put a face to the name! Half thinking of getting the thursday night boat. I have to catch up with a couple of my suppliers over there but I can probably do that on the Monday.
Put the nice weather on for me, can you?

I wonder if the owner of the GTI for sale on Carsales will be there? That'll test real enthusiasm

I just got notification that they won't be allowing spectators into Sandown due to insurance ect. Sorry guys.
