I'm going to be 20 when I go next year, will public transportation be good enough for getting around? Little nervous about venturing to Germany by myself to be honest.

One of the reasons is financial, Christian. From my place to Hessisch i have 2000km one way, so that might add up to 4500km in my 2 weeks vacation. Gas prices went up, and Romania is not in a very good economic situation. Prices go up, my salary not. Besides that, i have to overcome also a hostile exchange rate from RON > EUR. If i have to choose between 2 full tanks and the Hessisch registration, i know what to choose. I am not complaining, nor i want a lower tax, i am just saying that for me, on a tight budget is hard.
The best i can is to be there, with the split, not in a modern car. Wait... i don't have a modern car...  |
I just have talked with Christian and some of the Team. I have been in Rmania serveral times - first time in 1992 whith a care convoi by our chirch. We met so many people in Romaia and I was always friendly welcome like a part of a family. I also remember a romanian group at the Wolfsburg bug show which I haver organized, when they invited me to a romanian lunch inclusive self-bakered bred, sausages and very tasty slibovice. Thats not the onliest reaseon why we decidet to invite you for Hessisch Oldendorf Show 2013 as a regular participant so that you don't need to park your car outside. You are welcome!
I think you as a real participant is much better than one of these guys who are always blocking the list with their "fictive" vintage cars  |

Bjorn, i was in Wolfsburg in 2008 with the romanian folks, i was in Camberg 2011 , berchtesgaden 2012, and every year i will come to Germany in my split, that is until i find a job there and take my split to Germany for good 
I won't miss Hessisch, that's a fact. there's still a whole year left for preparations, but my split will be there!
Thank you for the offer, but i won't be there alone, i prefer to stay with my friends. if they register, i will too, not as a speial guest, but as everybody does, regardless of my financial problems

Yesterday, we met the former chief executive of Volkwagen and father of the legendary DBB-advertises in Wolfsburg. He is pleasured to be the official patron of the 6th int. vintage VW-Show in Hessisch Oldendorf in 2013 and wanted to be a participant in a vintage Volkswagen too...

Yea, and I have been in training, doing 32 oz ale curls, pumping schnitzel & spaetzle and learning Deutsche: "Das ist ein sehr schönes Auto" and of course "Mehr Bier Liebling bitte" which will lead to "Wo ist die Toilette"
