Hello Volkswagen Club of South Africa!!!
Happy New Year to Everyone! The VWCSA Committee wishes everyone the best for 2021!
We all know how difficult 2020 was, and it definitely hit the VW Club just as hard with us unable to host many of the events that we have grown to love.
The committee had planned our annual charity day, Puppies in the Park for January at an awesome new venue, but alas, the president has spoken, no park gatherings are allowed
Do not worry, the VWCSA committee will not fail our members, Puppies in the Park will be moved to March and for January, we have a very new and exciting virtual event planned for the Club:
VWCSA - Mini Car Mods - The Dub Edition
Date: Today until 15 February 2021
Location: Comfort of your own home
Time: What ever you choose
Cost: Free to all, open to all
A Virtual Model Car Event
The committee has decided to put together a little competition.
Mod a Hotwheel, Diecast, Matchbox which ever you like! Make it your own, or follow in the footsteps of some great liveries, looking to make a one of a kind or have a completly stock rare model? All options are welcomed!
Meet your Mini Car Mods Sponsors!!

Hi,I would like to have feedback on my builds ....to tell the truth I am very disappointed ...and that is my opinion.I literally had to spend full days to complete my builds as fast as possible before I had to go college. I know this was all for fun but for some reason I'm always overlooked at the things I try to achieve....I hope to get feedback ...thank you
