    New member with a fixer-upper

    Hi Dave, Welcome. Not far from you, over in Grendon but grew up in Sutton. I'm not experienced in the level that you are going to be taking on, I just about keep my 2 vehicles on the road with a bit of tinkering here and there. As Sparky said, try Leon. Good luck.

    Road tax renewal for Historic vehicles

    I still get paper reminders from DVLA and use my local Post Office to Tax it that way. The old fashioned way......without the Tinternet.

    My '69 Bay

    On the edge of Cannock Chase, near Stafford. Last Tue of every month. Bit of a drive for me ,45 min, but always some cool motors. And a better bunch of people than the clubs near me......No T5/6's!

    RSVP Midlands BBQ - September 22

    I think they have moved it from Bidford up the road to near Coughton Court. 2 reasons..........a taxi driver has mullered the bridge and made it impassable and the Bidford site won't allow BBQ's/Fires anymore!

    My '69 Bay

    I have been on here for a few years now and finally getting round to starting a thread. I have put up a few posts/pics......help needed with pics although, not very tech minded! Brought it in April '21 and thoroughly enjoying it. I have been into VW's since the early '90s and have had a...

    I have one fitted to mine from when I brought it. Never used it. It is a Radiomobile CB 202. Might plug it in Mon and see if I get anything.

    I'll be there in my Bus now, as well as my Notch. Girlfriend is going to drive the Bus, putting her big girl pants on and taking on driving it. Went out a few times this weekend in it and she feels safe. Will try and find a few of you, after I've put my Notch in the B289 bit.

    I'm going, will be my first time. However going in my Notchback, been asked to put it in the B289 line up. Would love to take the Bus, but can only drive one at a time. Hoping to borrow a tent to sleep in.

    Getting old!

    Has anyone used Absolute VW near Derby recently? Good, bad, indifferent? My body doesn't let me do what it once used to and need a few things looking at on my Bus and they are reasonably close to me? I've never been overly keen on other people working on my vehicles, but I think this might be...

    Mot feelings.

    Had mine this week. My MOT guy never wants to do it, tells me it's a classic car and they don't need them! I have told him I am more than happy to pay £40 to have an extra pair of eyes have a look at the not so shiny parts. He does let me get under the ramp too to have a look around. Just...

    Balancing Wide 5s

    I'll look into getting an adapter then. My tyre man is good, never uses hammer-on weights, always stick on. Just hasn't got the ability to fit wheels on machine.
