11am should work good - just give me somewhere to put into my GPS and I'll be there. I will probably drive down from Nanaimo for some Malahat time

while you were trying to get outta this, I was making plans with my brother in Nanaimo to visit him on Saturday, then cruise on Sunday. Will be a good change of location for a GTG

Myself and another TDI friend from Abby are in.. just need an address to punch into the phone :)

*Ps. Does anyone have a MK4 tow loop from the spare tire kit kicking around they wanna sell? I'm sure I have $10 somewhere around here that I could give for it.. Tow truck driver or Kamloops dealership kept mine last summer..

So simple to get there, you won't need a GPS. From the ferry terminal, you'll be on Highway 17 which turns into Blanchard St. Just follow it all the way into town. When you get into downtown, turn left on Fort St and follow it to Cook St, then turn right and follow it to the end. You'll be on Dallas Rd at which point you turn left and follow it a couple blocks until you see Clover Point.

If you take a look at the map on page 4 of this thread, you can see the route I described.

Alright so the plan is, meet at clover point at 11 am on sunday the 22nd. Cruise around town making our way to my chosen cafe (hopefully at this time it will be less busy)

See you guys there :)

^ Sounds good. If my chosen cafe is too busy we can figure out another locale to gather at for eats.

Everyone ok with that?

Ok, lets firm this up for everyone;
It's Sunday April 22nd at 11:00am starting at Clover Point
Show and Shine for an hour?
Drive along "the map" for our cruise part.
End up at Ocean Blvd and if we are still hungry head down to The Mychosen Cafe

FYI: Mychosen Cafe is BUSY until 2:00pm on Sundays

1324 Dallas Road, Victoria, British Columbia, Canada if your GPS needs an exact address to get you super close to Clover Point.


If we agree, then I'll post this up one local websites to get more TDI'ers out.

You still want me to bring the double din?

I'll have VDS and VCDS for anyone who wants some programming done.

I have a set of MKIV motion sensors someone can have for $50. Set of MKIV wagon cross bars for $150. Euro NAVI "D" for $350. GLI Steering wheel for $75 (no airbag), full MIV .:R front end suspension (subframe, rack, lcas, knuckles, etc), EURO r springs, front VW euro (mad by bilstein) shocks and a bunch of other stuff. I'm walking on the boat though...

Hey Chris, when you have the time please PM me a list of all the parts you have still kicking around. I may be interested in a few things now that you no longer have use for them. Any chance you still have the GLI roofliner and extras that you scooped awhile back? Anyways, there's no hurry, whenever you can.

Just a few days away and it looks like we won't even have 10 cars?! That's shameful! I don't know how many times I heard "why are there never any local GTG's? I'd be there for sure if I didn't have to catch a ferry!"

WE DRIVE DIESEL CARS PEOPLE!! There's no reason not to drive to a GTG for the day! I've been to Washington and Portland for GTG's, and there's a couple coming from Washington for THIS GTG and yet all these local members can't be bothered to make the effort!! What a joke!!

Sorry guys, looks like I am stuck in town this weekend to watch a hockey game going on in Vancouver.

Seems like a tough series but have been a fan forever. Go Canucks!
