8 years ago - my first time with my own US car at the Nürburgring, and it was snowing 🌨️😂
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We’re going back this year as part of #USAtoWolfsburg - July 17-29 - with stops at the Nürburgring, Hockenheimring, and lots more.

Live @ Five - April 24, 2024
We’re back, for a test of a new slightly more organised format… news, events, and mundane chatting 🥰
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We take a longer deep dive in the @volkswagen Germany GTI Coming Home, with info on tickets, and our #USAtoWolfsburg trip over for it. Leading into @loeshowofficial a month after it.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There’s news from the VW world : the Beijing Auto show with the ID.Code with new design language from @andymindtofficial and Co and @volkswagen_r becoming the next Cupra?

Upcoming enthusiast shows with @newenglanddustoff and @deutschwurx and VolksFaire, plus looking back at @ultimate_dubs_uk last month.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What’s in the box with @fcpeuro and @meyle_parts , and new Audi RS6 models.. plus later a touchscreen display that’s now living in all my old cars from @autostylecoza
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
With @kw_glen helping keep me on topic - we also quickly look at an amazing Audi RS2 that just arrived for a lovely US client - I’ll post more details soon of this amazing @mtmcars period build.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The end got cutoff, so there’s a part 2 - and please let us know what you think of it all ❤️

That Monday back to reality is at the end of this drive, but the miles and smiles will remain.

It feels a tiny bit like the old Mischkulnig Tankstelle in Wörthersee 👏😢🥰

We’ve organised a hang out on Saturday night wit

We’ve organised a hang out on Saturday night with @wookiesinthewoods and @fcpeuro at the Pit Stop / Dam Garage - starting immediately after the charity raffle ends, and open late until 11pm.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We’ll have music playing, the gas station will be selling food and drinks, and there’s good lighting for photos, and.. it’s easy walking distance from the Fontana WITW resort.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There’s limited parking, so please consider walking down even if it’s just from the baseball field (where the fire pit will be burning until late also!), and please don’t block any roads. And for the love of everything, please don’t drink alcohol and drive.

Full size trees and lots of debris all over the Tail of the Dragon and Hellbender roads in the cold rain tonight, in the build up to @wookiesinthewoods
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Big thanks to the local crew that came out with a snow ploy and chain saw. Seemed like they’ve done this a few times before.

573mi / 922km driven so far today and a crazy frugal 29.4 US MPG 8L /100km @ 70mph/112km/h. Average price of premium gasoline has been around $4.00 US US Gal / €0.97 L / £0.83 L / R19.6 L
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The 3.2L VR6 engine was rebuilt and assembled by Schimmel @spturbo with @techtonics.tuning camshafts to otherwise OEM+ specs, and feels amazing. @plyn_arnd at @thesuspensionsource installed the drivetrain with new flywheel etc.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We’ve been pushing pretty hard on the road to make up for delays this morning, and the fuel consumption is wayyyy better than the RS3 (it’s the 5cyl with 500hp…), and better even than the Mk8 Golf R 2.0T. Which is wild as the Mk4 is running 3-4,000rpm in 6th gear (theoretically… for information purposes only).
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Oh, and the car just passed 108,000 miles total (173,800km) 🥰

Our @wookiesinthewoods lineup leaving from Pottstown PA this morning ❤️💙💚

Mk8 : @vhiguy48

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It’s a 700 mile drive to the WITW village, near the Tail of the Dragon Road in Tennessee/North Carolina.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But tonight we’ll start at @millteksport in Knoxville, then lots of driving more, then the big charity auction on Saturday afternoon, and then.. on Saturday evening we’re hosting a small gathering at the gas station in Fontana - all are welcome ❤️

337 Edition. America’s version of the 25th Golf

337 Edition. America’s version of the 25th Golf GTI anniversary. I’ve owned this car since 2004, and it’s still one of my favourites. It’s named after the EA337 internal code at VW.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1,500 were made, all silver, all with cloth @recaroautomotive seats, 18” @bbs.wheels in special shot peened finish, and the first GTi here with the 6 speed manual transmission.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Mine’s 99% original - with @fcpeuro the original suspension was switched to a set of @bilsteinus shocks, and there’s a set of all-season @delintetires D7 tires instead of the original summer tires.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Today’s the first time it’s been fully registered and inspected since 2017, and it’s so much fun driving it again 🥰🥰🥰

So… if a Polo Harlequin happened, who in the UK

All Harlequin fans watching @volkswagen_uk at the moment - what do you think will be their announcement after their teaser post ? 👀 ❤️💙💛💚
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The UK got Polo Harlequins back in 1995/6, and still get the (normally painted) Polos now.. but maybe it’s something else like an ID.3 or socks like @volkswagenmexico released or maybe it’s a early start to April Fools and it’ll be a scale model released on April 1st ? 🤣

The VW Touareg was launched 20 years ago in the US

The VW Touareg was launched 20 years ago in the USA in 2004. This is my 2005 V8 which is the next car I’m dropping off for the annual Pennsylvania State Safety Inspection.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’ve driven it about 100,000 miles - I bought it with 75k many years ago - and it’s getting a lot of work this year. Headliner and sunroof drains are in progress. Tires are done, timing belt is done - and control arms are next.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Anyone else rocking the T1 still? Maybe even as a daily driver!?

Fresh PA Safety inspection today on the 2021 3.6L

Fresh PA Safety inspection today on the 2021 3.6L VR6 Atlas - this is like the UK’s MOT, and Germany’s TÜV.

The odometer is now at 38,578 miles / 62,085 km - and ready for its 40k service 🔄 🌎 🌍
