Simon Glen wrote the book 'Volkswagens of the World' (Veloce Publishing), which I still regard as the ultimate VW bible. About 10 years ago he sent me a signed copy after I sent him some pics. I have since lost contact with him, does anyone perhaps have an e-mail address or postal address? He stayed in Toowoomba, but I think he has moved since. Would really appreciate any help, thanks!

You might want to post on the usenet group RAMVA (rec.autos.makers.vw.aircooled). I know he used to post on there quite a bit. You can access it through google:

Thanks for the info, I have since registered on the Ausieveedubbers Forum - strangely enought, someone spotted his 411 (one of only 3 in Aus) only yesterday!
