Many thanks in advance, but I think, except this driving-test there wont be anything else in Down Under about the K 70. But you never know it before!
Perhaps there was something from NZ. To there 15 K 70 were exported, and a few came later to the Kiwi's as used cars, for example from Hong Kong. In 1998 me and a friend have visited one of the two K 70-owners there. And some RO 80-fans, too. Until the chairman-couple from the NSU-club was divorced, there was an impressive big NSU-scene there.
We'd been also to a VW-enthusiasts-meeting there (very small, because very rare cars there) and there I've bought several K 70-literature, sales brochures, internal VW-files, etc. The guy was happy to sell it, "because noone is interested in it".
One sales brochure was strange. It was written in English, but shown were LHD-cars (for Britain VW has cobbled the brochures, just with mirroring the pics to RHD - disgusting and shabby). And the printing-number was for Australia, which was strange, because no K 70 was sold there.
Years later, when I've looked closer inside this brochure, I got a shock. There was a dealer's sign inside, from an VW-import-shop in Saigon, South Vietnam. :shock: :shock: :shock:
