Hey! :)
Welcome to the forum! Yeah we haven't technically launched yet. We've sent out a few letters to our loyal readers so they can be the first. I'm guessing you got such a letter?
Anyway, I expect activity to be quiet for a few days. Next week should pick up :)

yep still 6v, but it is coming off the road at christmas for a full body off and will be returning a little lower, a little sparklier and a little faster ;)

Didn't every subscriber get a letter with their mag then? :D
Serves me right for not opening it yesterday as I've only just registered......

good idea setting up the forum (wife is mag subscriber), another aircooled VW forum I try to browse is so massive I find it hard to search now...
This one may give me the motivation to get on and do something with the wifes 1302S (Dec 1970) that's been off the road since 1995.

Yeah every subscriber got a letter. The reason I asked was because I didn't expect subscribers to have their copies yet - we don't even have them in the office yet :confused:
So yesterday I thought the few who had registered had just stumbled on to the forum by accident as there are no links from volksworld.com to the forum yet - that will happen in a few weeks. :)

Just an observation... yes I was a bit bored :p
