BUGgers & AMC club's Drive to Bagan Lalang

Did you know that there is a stretch of coast at Bagan Lalang which is now called Goldcoast????... sheesh!!! how original wan......

Anyway a bunch of us vw beetle owners and a few other classic car owners took a drive to Bagan Lalang last Sunday.... oh wait do you guys even know where Bagan Lalang is? :) well if you dont its a coastal area just after Sepang Town.... Dont know where Sepang is? ... You know F1 Sepang Circuit ... aaa thats right! its some what a whiles way from there...

It was such a hot day... but of cos it rained like nobodies business later in the evening... luckily i was already back home by then....

i visited Bagan Lalang almost a decade ago.... and boy has it changed.... it used to be a nice quiet place .... the beach wasnt that great but wide...and the water was not too nice either.... but it was a great place for a picnic...... there was a restaurant there which was famous for its 'Ikan Bakar' (Grilled Fish) and the sea food wasnt have bad either....

So yeah ... now ...almost ten years later.... they are calling it Goldcoast.... and they are building a stretch of water villas on stilts... there goes the neighbourhood lah.... the place was packed with visitors .... the roads are alot better but its jammed with cars... maybe because it was a sunday...... there are alot of new stalls along the stretch.... but the food really sucked!... .... .... sigh!!! it was sad lah... i really hope this place is not ruined further by stupid humans who only know how to leave rubbish wherever they go......

Well anyway.... the drive was ok besides some miscommunication, route problems, car problems, etc etc but hey... thats what you get when you bring more then 5 people/cars together right...

more then 10 beetles showed up and about half a dozen classics of other makes from the AMC club joined us..... have a look at the slide show below.... i felt the gathering was pretty good .... maybe the next time will be better if we can iron out some issues.....
