    hello guys and gals!!

    some of you may remember my thread about the last years coast to coast adventure in USA, if not check the lnk in my sig.

    Now the man himself (winner of 2 categorys on h20 2009, best of class dustoff 2010) and representetive for everyone in love with shiney stuff PAUL (chrom0sexual) has come to europe

    story and lots of pics and vids will be providet by us, we started out in the mk1 forums but since there are many other cars than only mk1´s we decidet to post on here!!!!
    if you see us ,meet us , or randomly encounter us post pics and story here along with us
    please!

    HERE WE GO!!!!!

    pauly was due to arrive in bergen/norway yesterday @9.20 in the morning so i picked him up
    .

    was just standing there like nobodys buisness

    he seemed happy to see me and didnt hesatate to jump in my car and we rode home to me, i showed him the bed i prepared with chrome of course.!

    imedately he jumped into the most embarrasing pose ever!!!!!

    anyway we took a tour to the town even tough the weather was cloudy.
    up onto the vista point





    pauly found his new rms design and wanted to chrome them mediately

    the big structure on the left belongs to the shpyard i am working at

    we took a beer each for a substantial amount of money

    30$ for 2 beer???????????
    dayummm!
    pauly just loved the THINK electrc cars

    and the fact that they get ther own parking spots to recharge

    we walked a little around town to the fortress

    and went home again due to paulis jetlag problem.
    of course we needet some more beer, pauly went out of his mind whe he dscovered a bee that was named like one of his cars
    http://www.volksforum.com/albu...l.jpg

    we didnt hesatate and bought some of it
    enjoyed it shortly after

    i served him my specialyty
    http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=4752438

    and he loved it
    after a couple of more beers took the jetlag over for him and he was compfotly rolled into his chrome blanket

    First the pics are massive... Then the pics are tiny. What's the problem? Can't find a middle ground?

    It is cool to me that two guys who are from two totally different countries and lives can become friends over a car forum. With nothing more than cars in common and things like this can come of it.

    Very cool!

    ok guys we have been offline for ages it seems, no www and too much to do.
    anyway here we go again!

    norway behind us we arrived in danmark

    weather was good and the roads empty


    we saw some crazy cars on the road



    after 3,5 hours we arrived at the border between danmark/germany


    with pauly at the wheel my car hit 150000km

    and we kept on driving until we reaced the place where thomas lives in the evening...
    nice and peaceful area there!
    we met him (eurojettanut) his gf andrea and the man imported for hardcore bodywork mike
    (4000stq)

    there we we had a nice evening drooling over thomas´s collection of old school parts

    went out for some pizza and had a good time with good people
    distance driven 661km
    next morning we went on to berlin
    more about that later on

    Awesome! I'm looking forward to the rest of the story. I personally loved your last year's US report, so i'm only guessing we'll have something similar this time.

    hello again!
    so sorry we have been offline for way to long!
    hotels wth no www and other dutys kept us from posting, i uploadet 1034 (!!!) pics to my photobucket (i needet to upgrade topro for that) i will not post all pics here.
    my plan is to post most of the car pics in the subforums an only post our top favourts in this thread.
    hope you will not be dissapointed?!
    here we go (again)

    after we left the north of germany we headed out to berlin (a 600km drive on autobahn)
    we arrived relaxed and did a party with my bro tacky (tuki) and some friends and family..


    pauly was first to go to bed so he got painted


    we acidentely ran into a press conference of the german chanceler where a hardcore security guy told my bro tuk to get out of throwing distance with his beer bottle...his reply:
    how do you know how far i can throw a bottle??

    enough of the private stuff....
    car content
    we visited the vw dealership to see stuff that all the US guys cant get, like this



    big boy in a little car...
    in comparison the seats of a golf R



    saw this as well





    even the girls agreed that the exterior was cool but the dash was wrong coloured









    from tomorrow on the car pics will keep flooding to you.. upgrade you internet connection

    so far otti

    booze can also help you stand up? of course, but not beer for breakfast - needs to be hard for the correct effect
