Near Dartford in Kent, currently hunting for my forst MK2 Gti
Kent in WA right?
just got mine as well friend, and i live in lakewood. just make sure you have it checked out before you purchase it. definately over paid for mine but over all im happy with my selection. just needed someone to love it.
I think you will find, being a .co.uk the majority of peeps here are UK based, though there are a few Europeans.
http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=dartford+kent&sll=51.447964,-0.197609&sspn=0.009201,0.027874&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Dartford,+Kent,+United+Kingdom&ll=51.443737,0.219727&spn=0.294447,0.891953&t=h&z=11
is where I think Rowleyslims means. 
(Not too far from me either! http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=Streatham+Hill&sll=51.443737,0.219727&sspn=0.294447,0.891953&g=Dartford,+Kent,+United+Kingdom&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Streatham+Hill,+Greater+London,+United+Kingdom&ll=51.399206,0&spn=0.589468,1.783905&t=h&z=10 )

Not to say that Yanks aren't welcome, especially if they have the sense to love dubs...



Yeah unfortunately i am not from the UK, will be going this coming up summer to stay for a while though. stoked!! but i have found this site to be pretty darn helpful when it comes to my mk2..
