Numerous packages of varying size have been turning up for Paul at work over the last few weeks, but not the normal plain wrapped parcels that are hurriedly hidden away in his car – these have been stuff for the trip.
We also took a ride down to Karmann Konnection for their summer BBQ where they sorted out some fantastic prices for us – thanks Jules!
Ritchie King even donated a set of used US spec headlights so that we can run some nice bright halogen bulbs! Thanks Ritchie Don’t they look cool with the Porsche style stone guards on…?

We went over to VW Action today at a grey and drizzly Santa Pod raceway. We knew Andrew was going to be there and we had a bunch of questions to ask him, but were a little worried that we wouldn’t find him in the crowd – then we spotted his 00 Baja churning up some mud…
Andrew was great! Very friendly and helpful – it was a pleasure to listen to his Bamako stories!
