The clock is ticking and we can’t work fast enough to get everything ready in time. The team are raring to get up to Sandown Park on Friday, to set up what should be our best show to date. This year we are celebrating our 25th year of trading, so as well as the usual great stock … Continued
Last Thursday night was the first evening meet-up since September. We knew the light would fade quickly, and it would be a tad chilly, but it didn’t seem to put off the 30 or so cars we had here for the evening. The Aircooled scene was out in force with ten Beetles coming out to … Continued
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9Jmz5Oq738] Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning was spent with the video camera.. (when we weren’t setting the stand up) Here’s what we saw!
From behind the wheel of my 895cc polo, or even in the mighty 1.1 Golf i must admit to pretending I’m a racing driver from time to time, searching the best line through the corner trying to carry speed (and don’t I need to) and passing anyone I can along a winding dual carriageway in a quest for more retro … Continued
Ultimate dubs is always an exciting show, new cars to be unvieled that you know of, and a couple of sneaky ones who have flown below the radar or at least off the forums over the winter. Couple this with inviting two cars we had only seen photos of to be pride of place on … Continued

So sadly Adam and his orange Mk2 G60 won’t be able to make it to the show this weekend – long story! So we had a spare space to fill. But who and what should fill it? After a bit more deliberation we offered it to Luke “Dubsy” and his OEM looking Mk1 Gti. After last years … Continued
An almost sunny Sunday brought a productive day at James V’s house this weekend, with some progress being made on the ongoing Mk1 project, after a year or so of being sat around the house in various states, the BBS RS’s finally made it back onto the car. Saturday had seen the tyres being fitted … Continued
Our colleagues here at VW Heritage spent last weekend up in Stafford at the Dubfreeze show. Although predominantly an aircooled show there were a few waterpumpers out too. Here’s a few to whet the appetite and a link over to our Flickr album for the rest of our photos. Thanks to Stevecollection 2008 and Twenty Mac for a number of … Continued
That’s Dubfreeze done for another year, good to catch up with old faces and meet a few new ones too. Once again the SSP wheel offer was a success; £100 off a set of four was a nice treat for those after new rolling stock. The show and shine was fairly small, but sadly this … Continued
