Hello from Scotland

[dougiegillespie@tiscali.c]

Hi All, ive just joined your forum, and its looks a gooden, Im Dougie from Dumfermline in Scotland, i'm a member of the ScottishVAG over here, but though i would have a look and see what the VAG sceen in over in Oz, I am hopefully moving over to Melboure in the next year or so, after i get all TRA and visas sorted. Here a picture or two of my White MkII GTI, its presently in my garage getting reborn and can't wait to get it on the road soon, Dunno if can bring it over to Oz,Are there many up for sale over there?


This was my last pride and joy

Welcome, Dougie. From what I've read about Mk 2s over here ... bring it with you. Good MkIIs are pretty rare in Aus.

Enjoy the forum and the Melbourne crew will be pleased to see you when (if?) you move out here.

Cheers,

Dave

Hi, 3 doors are pretty much no existent. Don't under estimate the costs involved. My mate just brought in a Corrado Storm and a MK1 turbo. They fitted in his container but it cost him a fair bit in taxes to get them on the road.

I have heard that 3dr mkII are scarce over in Oz, but i didn't think that bad, need to be looking into a cointainer then.The bottom picture is the road to Ullapool taken from the lay by at Braemore junction, its a great road for a day out driving. I will post up pictures of my white one rebirth asap for you, its coming along nicely, hopefully back on the road this month. Its a F reg 88, not that many small bumper left over here either, but plenty 90 spec's, big bumpers about, 3dr and 5dr. I,m from dunfermline and stayed in Inverness and gairloch in the past.
