VR6Pete 1,455 Posted July 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2017 Some more info on this. It will be between 17th - 28th July - exact date will be firmed up ASAP and also location is likely to be Peterborough. I realize its a personal thing having someone else drive your car, however it is a road test feature so the person who is writing the feature will need first hand impressions on how the car drives. The chap has MSA and drives many cars a year (after all its his job!) and has full PL insurance up to £10M so no need for concern and also regularly competes with his Mk2 Golf 16v in events. If you are interested, please post ASAP. Link to post Share on other sites

VR6Pete 1,455 Posted July 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2017 Hey guys. The organiser of this should have been in touch. I have emailed them for an update Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 1,455 Posted July 18, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2017 Morning guys, Latest version of magazine going to press today, John will be in touch after that (Soon). Link to post Share on other sites
John-Joe85 1 Posted July 19, 2017 Report Share Posted July 19, 2017 Afternoon guys, sorry I've not been on here sooner. My name is John-Joe Vollans, I'm the editor of Modern Classics magazine and will be writing this feature and will be organizing it on the day. We're shooting this at Peterborough show ground in their super clean exhibition hall. If you've ever been to Modified Nationals, this is the same location. http://www.youreventspace.co.uk We are only looking to drive the VR6 now as the feature leads in with the 25th anniversary of this car. We are changing the theme slightly to six-cylinder Golfs so will no longer need the Golf R. Feature will therefore involve the VR6, Mk4 R32 (blue) and the Mk5 R32 (grey, black, any colour really except blue). We will need the R32 owners for half a day and the VR6 all day. If you're interested can you please let me know at: jj.vollans@bauermedia.co.uk or call me on desk: 01733 395049 or mobile: 07958 589280. Please note I'm still on press deadline this week but should be able to get back to you on emails swiftly. This is the lead cover shoot for our October issue so these cars will be seen by over 15,000 car fans and it'll be a nice thing to add to your car's history folder. We're happy to send you free copies of the issue when it's printed and will provide refreshments and lunch. Look forward to hearing from you guys soon and thanks to Pete for putting me in touch with you. JJ VR6Pete 1 Link to post Share on other sites
