VW Beetle in general

I am lucky enough to have an old Beetle and a new Beetle and think they are the coolest cars around. Stupidly a few months back I decided to sell my newbie and buy a corsa as I was clocking up more miles than I would have liked. What a mistake... I missed Widdle (Cyber green Beetle) from the moment I dropped him at the garage and have spent the last 4 months pining for him. Then out of the blue, while looking to buy another beetle who did I find for sale? Widdle. Iam over the moon and am picking him up next week. I cannot wait to get him back he is the best drive I have ever had. The corsa will go to my hubby rather than back to a garage. I am in love with the new ...  Read the complete review

Yes, the Bug is back, and better than ever! ------------------------------------------- There are times in your live, when against your better sense and financial abilities, you suddenly realise that you cannot spend one more day living without a new toy. I experienced this hellish sensation about 1 year ago when I first met the New Beetle. Three days later the car was in my garage, I was blissfully infatuated with it and my bank manager was in tears. Both loved and hated by motoring journalists since it’s first debut a few years ago, this is certainly a car which evokes discussion. Traditionalists have always been divided over the merits of ...  Read the complete review

This was a spontaneous purchase - I'd actually walked into our local VW Dealer to buy a Polo which was on special offer. Whilst talking to the salesman, he asked if I'd be interested in a New Beetle as he had a few pre-registered cars which were unused and, in effect, brand new. I'd noticed them on the roads and had always admired them but I'd never given owning one a great deal of thought. Twenty minutes later, a cheque for £12,500 was handed over and I had a Reflex Silver 1.9 TDI. I opted for the diesel as the better fuel economy was an important consideration, and the specification included air-conditioning, not available as standard on the 1.4 or 1.6 ...  Read the complete review

All my respect is given to the new VW Beetle! As I live in Cornwall where all the mellow surfers live the old rust bucket beetles are very common, but I don't see so many new ones.They are the nicest thing ever. I am determined to own one of those beasts. It is like a bubble car and is rounded off and looks smart! If any one was stinking rich or just wanted a neat car i would surely advise them to purchase the Bug. And i hope to see more of them around because they are a very nice sight. i thought that the other Volkswagens' were awful and they were a letdown. The shape is very taky on others but i like the way the new bug is rounded off and is very sporty, not ...  Read the complete review

My VW Beetle is easily my most beloved possession!! It really is the perfect fashion car, and definitely a bit girly, what with the flower vase and blue lighting. It has beautiful curves and is easily recognisable in the cark park - just look for the little bubble! I love the 'beetle wave'! Pretty much all beetle drivers will recognise others with a wave as you're driving along - very cute I think and not something you would get with any other car. Have had a few problems with mine. You pop the boot using the key (remote) but then have to lift the boot to fully open it. I had problems with the latch which would pop the boot but not release it ...  Read the complete review
