Default VW Combi with WRX running gear..??

Saw this last night in Brisbane coming back home from the shops - heading south on Lutwyche Road at Lutwyche. So we are overtaken by a nice-looking combi with some serious airbrushing work done on the back wearing the private QLD plates "VWRX". I thought nothing of it - nice combi, done up well, likes his combis and Scoobies... fair enough...

Until my wife said aloud "I wonder if it's a cross between a WRX and a combi?", obviously reading the plate. I rolled down the window as we sat behind it at the lights. They went green, and off it went... with that familiar flat-four warble... and then the "psht" of a blow-off valve..!

It was nuts. I've been trying to find any info on it, but have only found a VW Beetle that was fitting with WRX running-gear made in the NT (which looks about as nuts as the combi, but not nearly as cool)... but nothing about the combi.

Anyone know of this combi?
