2008 VW NATIONALS INFORMATION |
| Over the past 20 years, the
dedicated members and committee of Club Vee Dub Sydney Inc have been
hosting The VW Nationals. Next year we will be celebrating the show’s
twenty first birthday. From this year we have elected to move the show
away from the traditional Easter Holiday weekend.
This will allow our members to take advantage of this break as an actual holiday, or attend religious functions without any interruptions from the running of the show. This move will also offer advantages to our organising committee, give more time for sponsors to support the event, and allow a longer lead time in producing the show and organising the necessary support items for the event. The new date for the VW Nationals 2008 show and shine will be Sunday May 25th, and for the following years will continue to be the fourth Sunday in May. Hopefully moving to this weekend will also allow many interstaters more flexibility to attend. Several new plans are underway to make the event a full Volkswagen weekend. Price structures and sponsorship will remain the same where possible, thus creating a value packed weekend and show. We look forward to seeing you all at the VW Nationals May 2008. |
Now in its 21st great year, the VW Nationals has become the event for all VW and Audi Owners.
See the most immaculate array of models from just about every production year. Enter your car in one of the categories below or just come and look.
Its the event for the enthusiast and all the family. Heaps of events all weekend with Sunday the big Show and Shine' day.

Important note, there was an error on the recently posted
entry forms.
One air-cooled category was deleted so some of the air-cooled categories and all
the water-cooled moved up one line, so the category number has changed.
