The first site.....yes...... It was hosted with some free company but they didn't allow me to take a backup of the data when I decided to move away from them and host my own site
Since then there has been a minor incident with an upgrade. Lost very little but I keep on being reminded of it
I'm in Slovakia at the moment running around in half meter of snow on the Polish border so I might not post soon but I could organize some free "5 year" stickers if someone comes up with some designs that we can choose from.

I remember joining in 07. Was just before I got my bug. Remember googling vw beetles south africa, to look at the different types and year models I could find here. Lurked for a while, and registered abit after that. And just like blitz. Not a single day since have I not been online. Its addictive. Lol and after 3yrs, I have the bug running, roadworthy'd and semi understood.
More than meets the eye!
