I recently got a new garage to build my 1302S GL in Gothenburg, Sweden.

So this was the place from the beginning.

Hello, is that you whole garage? If so, man I envy you:D , you must be the happiest person in the whole world. I have a total of three bug, two of which I could have been completed. However I sold my condo 4 years ago, and the housing market took a while to come down. And now the world is in a state of bank and lending institution bankruptcy. I say right on to you, now you will see progress.

This is definitely off topic but don't you just love how the Europeans make the need for a 'real man's truck' to tow things seem unnecessary. He's towing his bug with a Saab! :lmao:

I definitely live in the land of wretched excess. :thinking:
