Title: New Member...Bath area
Post by: pologt84 on September 14, 2009, 01:49:04 PM
Hi everyone!!  I'm a new member of the forum, recently joined as i am looking to upgrade from my polo GT to a long awaited G40.  I have also recently returned to the Bath area from Northampton where i was working as an apprentice motorsport mechanic.  None of my buddies around here are interested in cars or mechanics and miss the converstaions i would have with people i knew around the motorsport field.  I need some fresh 'blood' to feed off of for info and gatherings of similar minds etc...please let me know if you're around about in the area, just wanna meet some people with a similar interest in G40's and/or anything VAG orientated.

Thanks, Edds (actually, its Hannah, but mates call Edd).

Er it might be. Depends on trafic i suppose.

I dont know of any around this area really.

There is tidyvag but that is in poole, bit far away really.

Most stuff tends to be up north.

Uk polos have a few down here, there is usually one in bristol everynow and then.

I've been such a crap member and also so shit at responding to your replies, I'm sorry...

I'm sending one mass-message instead...The VAG meet in Bristol is held at the Bowlplex, at Longwell green.

I have been searching high and low for a frigging G40 and yeah, they're mainly miles away from me!!...although i do see a green one around Westbury, a town near me, so I might just go and ask about it, its been there for years, about time they let some one else have a go, hee.

My actual name is Hannah, but my mates have just called me Eddie for years, since school....pretty random, but its stuck.

I'm gonna check out another GT on Wed, I'm so fed up of not having a car, I might just go with what I know, even though I yearn for some forced induction!!

Cool, will check out the meets section and find out whats going on, thanks!!

That's my post!

Just thought i'd see if we can get a few VW's together sort of thing, there's a decent amount of modded VW's around the area so would be good to see if word spreads ;)
