I was pretty dissappointed when I first saw this some time. You would have thought the amount of money it would have taken to produce they could have got it correct!

Time to do something to bring the Type 4 BACK to the VW fold and make an acceptable part of thier incredible history isntead of being constantly ignored and shunned...bring on the revolution!!!

Its definately in there! Mine arrived this morning!

I think we all know that the mag is controlled by the publishers,& advertising for vowo will be handled by an advertising agency,so perhaps we shouldnt rush to jump down Ivans throat for it

Perhaps someone might drop him a line (His username is "Ivan" funnily enough!)..theres plenty of time for them to revise the Advert if they wanted to...My personal thoughts are that they shouldnt really be including watercooled,but ho hum,thats just me!
