Back in May last year (I know, we’re a bit late to the party with this one), Scott Sayers of Deutschwurx fame, out of Eldridge, Maryland, decided to throw a little GTG at local Capitol Raceway and Europe on the Capitol was born. With over 180 cars attending the maiden event, it’s safe to say this event was just what the local area needed. And despite an over cast day, thankfully the rain held out till after all awards had been given out. Despite the ‘Euro’ branding, the event was predominantly open to all VW, Audi and Porsche vehicles which were parked in either and air-cooled or water-cooled area. While the main sponsor was Unitronic, plenty of other companies supported the show including Liquimoly, ECS Tuning, Animated Car Audio, Lindsay…

L’OE SHOW 2023 For 2023, we heard Jamie is looking to expand the L'oe Show downtown presence and offer a reverse USA to Wöthersee program to those in Europe who want to bring their vehicles abroad to the United States. Pottstown is close to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, within driving distance from New York City and only 4300 km from Lake Worth, Austria. L'oe Show has a great upward trajectory and is an event to add to the VAG show bucket list. Stay tuned to @loeshowofficial for more information about next year’s show. The L'oe Show was the breakout US VAG car show event of 2021. Jamie Orr, after years of describing an ideal show/venue, finally put dreams into action and filled the struggling Coventry Mall in Pottstown, Pennsylvania, and built the…

Flintstone, Maryland – In 1965, American folk rock band the Byrds released their version of “Turn! Turn! Turn!” in which there’s a purposeful, lyrical lament about seasonality and time marching on. Many car aficionados see the same inevitability through the show season, mornings get colder, the sun’s shadows get longer and longer. But before thoughts turn to the inevitable winter punch lists, tear downs, parts orders and winterizing, there’s one last show circled on the calendar – the perfect bookend to the season – Dubs at the Gap. The show is the proverbial autumn – an opportunity to reflect and be thankful for the year’s bounty as one last flash of splendour allows participants to indulge in what they love. It’s a relaxed atmosphere, an opportunity for enthusiasts to take…

1 YEAR AGO JANUARY 2022 Wow, what an issue. A Super Bug inspired by the car in Gran Turismo and a Tesla-swapped Mk2 GTI sleeper. If this is the future of car modding then I don’t think we need to worry. Inside, we featured a Stage 2 bagged Audi S3 and Jamie Orr’s Atlas GT concept Enthusiast Build. We also looked at contenders for our Car of the Year competition, checked out HP Tuner’s Mk7 R’s body mods and brought you coverage from L’oe Show and Dubs at the Gap across the water. 5 YEARS AGO JANUARY 2018 How can it be five years since David Lee’s RS3-powered 640bhp Golf R took cover, followed closely by Karl Ellis’s 755bhp all-wheel-drive Mk2 Golf. Carrying on the performance tip we had Darkside’s 437bhp…

Regular readers may recognise the name, Minoru Matsunaga, for we featured his awesome Mk3 Cabrio in our Readers’ Rides pages last year. A hardcore water-cooled VW fan (and an OG PVW reader, too), come 2020 Minoru took it upon himself to launch his first water-cooled VW meeting, called Water Days. Sadly, the global pandemic hit pretty soon after, and those plans were put on hold until 2021, but that initial event proved such a success with friends that it didn’t take Minoru much persuasion to repeat proceedings in 2022. Now, Minoru is quick to point out that this isn’t a show but rather an enthusiast meeting. So, there is no Show ’n’ Shine, no trophies and no trade stands (other than a small one from his friend selling VW-related stickers).…

IN ASSOCIATION WITH Is it bad it made us feel quite happy when Tom admitted progress had been a bit slower this month with his Mk2 Golf project? It’s not that we don’t like to see the car progressing or wish for Tom to not reach his debut deadline of Ultimate Dubs in March, but it just makes us feel a little bit inferior seeing the car come on so well each month when our own projects are all currently standing still. While Tom isn’t exactly getting his hands dirty with the build, he is project managing the whole thing pretty damn well. This month, Matt at Reflex has finally finished welding up all the unwanted holes in the engine bay and bulkhead. Yes, all 55 of them (not that…
