My new Toy

I just bought this 1972 Manx Buggy in Dundee (Scotland) and drove it home to Vienna.

On my way I went to VW-Action at Santa Pod Raceway and had a great weekend there:

On saturday it was parked in the Daily Driver Show and Shine area:

This was the entry sticker for the weekend:

Ofcourse I had good food to:

Summertime and the living is easy...

Great weekend in Styria

On friday I was at a Vespa Dealer meeting at Schloß Gabelhofen.

Then I drove threw the austrian mountains 

to go to the second Bus Camp Out and meet some friends.

This is detailing...

Very nice detail on the Cool Flo Bus!

As Hannover is to far away from Vienna...

... I couldn't go to MKT. Instead I was at the biggest Käfer meeting of Austria in Eggenburg.

I just found this pic of my car at Le Bug Show 2012 on the flickr page of the italian Cal Look Club called the Oldclan.

Can there be any nicer car then a Cal Look Bug?

No!!!
Take a look at Nico’s Blog too!

My aircooled rides



Here you can see my aircooled rides in chronological order:

 

This is my early Squareback that I bought after I crashed my motorcycle badly in 2000.

I still own this one:

 

This late Squareback was just a short episode for one winter. It was fun to drive with its 17'' summer tires:

 

Then I decided that I need a Type 34 and bought this one from the UK.

You can read the story here:

Part1

Part2

Part3

 

As the white Type 34 was crap I bought this orange one from a DKT club member:

 

 Then changed it to this look with an 2L engine:

 

 After I sold the Ghia again I was looking for an Old School Cal Look car and found this diamond green Oval bug:

 

 But then I found my dream car! This is my 62 Ragtop Looker. The best car I ever owned!!

 

In the mail today...

... I got a postcard with the invitation to EBI 5!
