Hi Folks just an update on our Wolfsburg experience...

Travelled 1800 miles round trip in my mk1 to our base in Hannover and then did two days in Wolfsburg museums and factory tour. Great spot and a real eye opener to what VW do best. The factory was class and massive. We were well received and the 32 cars which went thoroughly enjoyed it.

Some pics...
