Hi guys,
https://youtu.be/wpgLbQ4xYX0 Short impression of our club day at a VW dealership. We got the chance of wrenching on our cars with the help of two retired VW master mechanics. Funny to see how we worked on our old cars while a few mechanics were working on the electric stuff like the VW ID4...different world (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) remark : the orange stickered one is mine ... not on a lift, I only bled the brakes with their machine ... handy thing...

Great drone work and editing! So cool to see all those 914s in a dealer like that. A rare event for sure. All the cars were in really nice shape too. Thanks for sharing this!

What a wonderful event, but I can't imagine the "suits" at a USA dealership ever allowing "civilians" into their shop space! The liability possibilities would be outrageous in this litigious society. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif) Sad to hear this... this dealership supports the aircooled community already for 33 years. Every two months his workshop is filled up with bugs (beetles) and buses where the owners can wrench on their cars. Our club is invited once a year but we are always welcome to join the bug/bus guys.... |

What a great event! Makes me want to buy something from that dealer!
Excellent video work, too. Gotta love filming with a drone. But best of all is it looks like your club is full of "our kind of people" who appreciate the social aspects of loving our little cars. Thanks for posting! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) |

Wow! What a clean garage. Don't you have any 914's with bad paint jobs? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) All of the 914's were as beautiful as the garage. Great video too. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

What a great day. That would be wonderful if dealerships all supported our cars and clubs. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
