Info

Luke McEniery submitted this photo of his father-in-laws old Beetle. “My wife only showed me the pic today and didn’t even know he owned it. I’ll check with Tommy as he may have some more information. I think that photo was taken around 1976 I think, maybe earlier so this was a relatively new car back then.”

What we have been able to establish is that this Beetle left MDL on the Naas Road in August 1972 and was registered in the middle of September 1972 as 6915 ZE. Funnily enough, 6916 ZE was also a Beetle and that was registered and taxed on September 14th 1972. What we don’t know is if they were just randomly registered consecutively or were they bought by a company, registered and delivered on the one day. Maybe some day we will find out more, there’s always more information out there to be had so we’ll keep digging!
