Anyone going to the European Bug-In in Chimay, Belgium this weekend?

  1. No coincidence that its also the home of the extremely strong Trappist Ale, me thinks...

    I won't be there in the Bay as he's not quite mechanically up to snuff, at least I don't want to use the 6 hour drive across the continent as a 1st shake down cruise!!! That said, I'll be with my local VW club in a convoy of 11 various Bays & Splits, so if there is a breakdown we should have no excuse fro not being able to sort it at the roadside!!!

    I should have some form of interwebs there, so if anyone is over there too, drop me a PM and we can maybe meet up to enjoy a the local tipple, perhaps...?

    Or else PM me before Thursday morning & I'll reply with my mobile number.

    cheers

  3. That was an amazing weekend! I went down on the Thursday with my local VW club (in a friend's '63 bus, as my Bay wasn't ready) and had a whale of a time! There were some awesome cars there - hundreds of them! Excellent auto-jumble - I found a replacement GRP cabrio-roof piece, complete with roof frame and tattered canvas, for my Wizard for the grand sum of 10 euros!!

    I particularly liked the way wherever you looked, even when out and about in the village of Chimay itself, all you could see were VWs, from mint, to rat-look, stock, slammed to the weeds, 36hp and 360hp.. the full range all together in 1 place.

    Can't wait until 2017!
