Hi all... I Joined up here near on three years ago to get my hands on a VAG-COM for my Polo (Which I was successful in doing) 
Anyway, I've not long picked up a 2004 V8 Touareg "For the missus" (She's already expressed interest in taking over the Polo once her car sells...).
Since purchase, I've replaced a few of the vacuum lines in the engine bay (Which has resulted in the brakes working! Shock horror!), put a working speaker into the dash cluster, and chased some other electrical gremlins out.
On the to-do list is a valve body as she's a little grumpy on shifting once warm, timing belt (approaching 90,000km on this one - they're good for 120,000 according to Bentley??), acquisition of a full size spare, and shoehorning of aforementioned spare into the boot (Likely will build a carrier for it), and possibly the addition of a Raspberry Pi for CANBus interface with display on the nav unit (Because I'm a bit geeky).
I'm a bit of a four-wheeler from way back, although I'm not planning on doing anything really hardcore with the Touareg, it will probably be reserved for carting me to and from mountain bike trips.
I live South East of Melbourne, and have a HEX+CAN VCDS if anyone needs access to one.
