mikemod Posted April 26, 2006 Report Share Posted April 26, 2006 Was just messing around with google earth and found the factory at Wolsburg where our beloved GTI's were made. You can see the Autostadt in the bottom right corner. Factory at Wolfsburg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarmac_Terrorist Posted April 26, 2006 Report Share Posted April 26, 2006 Awesome Mikemod! I'm sure I spotted my GTI just completed and awaiting transportation in the compound! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muppetboy Posted April 26, 2006 Report Share Posted April 26, 2006 How often does Google update the images? My old MkIV Golf is still parked outside my house when I enter my postcode... need to get a shot with the GTI outside! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rowley Posted April 27, 2006 Report Share Posted April 27, 2006 Some of the google earth images are quite old. The NASA version (world wind) gets updated every 16 days on average I believe. Makes sense as NASA own (or at least help transport them into space) a lot of satellites they get first dibs at the images. Worth a look anyhow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] My house hasn't even been built yet, in fact the whole development doesn't exist. A nice green field with a bloke on his tractor is all you get! - I'd guess and say at least 4 years old!
