I was there (on foot) last year. Can't remember much of the VW contingent other than a beetle covered in stickers with a big skateboard attached to a rack on the rear decklid. Might have been yellow...? Would that be anybody on here?
*edit* haha, my memory is stuffed.
This would be the car in question. Not yellow, not covered in stickers. Only the skateboard was correct.

It's painful. I manually put an underline under the hyperlink with the u button, then if you hover over the URL button you can see instructions on two ways of inserting hyperlinks. The button itself doesn't do a whole lot.

It's hard to explain how to do it without this message board thinking I'm telling *it* what to do so here's how it would look with e x t r a s p a c e s put in to confuse it.
Here is a link to [ u ][ u r l = h t t p : / / w w w . t h e a g e . c o m . a u ]The Age[ / u r l ][ / u ] as an example.
