Info
Bought this car, my first car, in 1995. Made the rookie mistake of trying to change the look of it to a ’60’s style. Binned all the now “hard to get” original parts, wings, lights, bumpers etc. At the time, I loved how the car turned out. However, my lack of mechanical knowledge resulted in an engine fire less than 12 months later. The insurance company paid up and I sold what was left of it to a dealer who repaired it and sold it on. I bought a VW Golf but my love of the Beetle had only just begun. 7 Beetles later and I’m still hooked.
