Model information

1200 Beetle Deluxe

Info

This photo is owned by Aidan O’Donoghue but came to us via Dave Curran and also from Alan Lyne.

Aidan O’Donghue said that this photo shows his late father and his friend who had both bought the Beetle between them to use. This 1960 Beetle was clearly their pride and joy because it was not only immaculate but it was adorned with some nice accessories such as towel Rail bumpers, wheel trims, spotlights & headlight eyebrows. I’m sure if Aidan’s dad and his friend had gone this far to personalise their Beetle and maintained the Beetle as well as it looks in the photo, there were other accessories fitted that we cannot see in this particular photograph. A 1200 Beetle Deluxe in Black (L41) with all of those accessories must have really stood out amongst the sea of Beetles.

Thanks to Aidan and the O’Donoghue family for the photograph and the information. Thanks also to Dave Curran and Alan Lyne.
