The Durham Dubs North East VW show went down today and it was a great event. There was a good turn out with a wide range of Dubs turning up for the event. Click through to check out some pics of the days activities.

This coming weekend is the 4th Annual Durham Dubs show. Its the weekend before edition 38 and should be a good warm up for that if we dont say so ourselves. We are going to go through and check it out so check back for a full report and pics from the event.

For more info on the event you can check out www.durhamdubs.co.uk and the flyer is below.

Do not be alarmed! As disturbing as this image may seem these two guys are relatively sane (we will ignore the fact that one happens to own a Jeep), and are now distributing our products in SA. Nic and Stu are long time members of the VW community back in SA, and anyone who has been involved with the VW club will know who they are. Brad is moving to the UK, and when the two of them approached us to take over the reigns we couldn’t have asked for two better guys to fill his shoes. Their contact details are up on the Contact page, so if you are looking for our stuff you know who to call! Fahrvergnugen!

There is only a little over a week to go before this beast of a show goes down! Get ready, its going to be massive… Full HC report on the way.

They guys from Durham Dubs are holding their weekly meets once again so if you live in the area you may want to check these out. They start at 7:00PM and are held in the Sidegate car park (DH1 55Y) and with it being summer there is no excuse not to go! Flyer and map after the jump.

Yes that’s right, we have a new Facebook page for you all to join. The people in the know tell us the new format works much better and who are we to argue with that? So head on over the The Highway Collective on Facebook and join the new group! Daily updates, news, and dub inspiration!

Progress on the MK4 has been slow and steady. The pile of bits to go on is getting bigger, with a new set of rollers being the latest purchase. More on the Mk4 soon…

This is absolutely hilarious! All you will ever need to know about modding dubs. The scene has spoken.

Awesome video about an awesome car.

The winner of our Polo Selecta competition is Marc Addison. We really liked the overall clean look of his car, and the complimentary colour way. Here is what he had to say bout his build.

I chose to keep the car as original as possible and kept the original tail lights as well as the RX decal on the side as is was periodic as well as complimented the color scheme which was the Miami blue and black and blended well with the racy theme.

The wheels I chose were the Porsche cookie cutter design as the angular design of the wheels blended nicely with the angular design of the polo and the fact that it was from the earlier Porsche 911 s .I chose to color them black to compliment the RX decal as well as the overall color scheme as the bumpers and front spoiler are black as well

I chose the front spoiler as I was going for a race look and the moon roof to give it an air-cooled feel.

I chose to set the suspension so that the polo has a bit of a forward rake (if that’s what it’s called) to emphasize the lines of the car and to make it look sportier

The aerial I chose because it was reminiscent of earlier vws because of it being upright on the fender but shorter than the telescopic once again to blend in with the sporty feel

The color I chose because it went well with black as well as being one of the more uncommon old school vw colors
