    Greetings from Adelaide

    Hi all. I知 joining the Dub Club next week when I pick up my new white Polo GTI 2.0. After a decent line of quick cars I jumped onto fast bikes for a while, but I致e grown tired of having to dress up just to go for a head-clearer. Definitely time to get back into something with doors and a roof

    I知 hoping there is a good enthusiast community over here, so any pointers would be appreciated.

    Cheers,
    Paul.

    Welcome to VWW.

    There’s certainly a good local crowd for you, although I don’t know most of them as it’s been about 4.5 years since I rocked up to an event and I’m about to move again

    Keep an eye on the social threads and good luck with the Polo, the new model looks great.

    Yes you're more than welcome to come out to some events. Usually things will get posted up here: Adelaide: Monthly Coffee and Drive Meet - Discussion Thread

    There's also quite a few VW guys that turn up at cars and coffee events at Unley and Blackwood once a month. Feel free to come along and introduce yourself.

    Sounds good Dutch and tigger, will check the appropriate threads here. I’ll look out for the cars and coffee meets as well, I’m sure details are online somewhere

    You sound like me! I had quickish cars for a bit then got bikes and ditched cars altogether for a while and commuted on a few quite nice bikes but now I just cbf and am looking at getting back into cars again.

    New Polo GTI is pretty high up my option list but you might like to also consider something like a near new Octavia RS 169. Even hugerer value for money

    Edit: Just remembered you said picking up... So ignore the Skoda bit lol.

    VW dealer is closer Duane. Never underestimate the power of laziness

    Having said that, when the wife’s Kuga comes due for replacement the Octavia wagon and Karoq are on the list of possibles.
