Membership Join the club and enjoy the benefits...

The "Cabrio Club" provides a number of benefits for its members, these include a Technical Panel who provide help with Restoration enquiries, Fuel Injection problems, Valuations, DVLA registration and Chassis dating.

Several insurance companies advertise in the club magazine offering very competitive rates of "Agreed Value" policies to our club members.

One committee member is responsible for "NOS & Parts" giving assistance in sourcing hard to find New Old Stock and reproduction parts. Hoods of the correct "original" design are sourced directly from Germany at a considerable reduction on current VAG prices.

A number of social activities happen during the year these include a Christmas dinner, an AGM weekend (virtually all of which is a social weekend apart from the short business meeting when the new committee is elected), convoy cruises at Show weekends and regional cruises, details are in the Magazine. A "For Sale & Wanted" facility is available both in the magazine and on this website.

We have a Club Shop where you can purchase Club and VW memorabilia and clothing. Lists of members hiring their cars for Weddings and those prepared to use their cars for TV and Film work is also maintained. We have a diary of National and International shows and events.
