Yes the NEW Beetle will be phased out in two Years ... so I have read in the newspaper financial section.... Sales are dropping rapidly around the world ...
It will be Interesting to See how long the production of Cabriolet New Beetles lasts.... maybe they have left their run a little too late....
Incidently - If You do own a Liquid Cooled VW and You don't want the engine to last, make it a water cooled VW and replace the coolant with Water..... they are NOT Water Cooled..... have a taste if You don't believe Me...

Dude you get a real attitude there.

Like many people I love a lot of VWs regardless of where the engine is and how it is cooled.

I own a New Beetle, a Ghia and a Bay.

I'm the same guy whichever one I'm in or working on.

and termination of NB is not scheduled at all, that was a rumour. In 2008 they will decide to stop or continue.
