looks okay so far, be nice if it had a flat 4, but probably new FSI turbo.

This is my Volkswagen, there are many like it, but this one is mine. Without me my Volkswagen is useless, without my Volkswagen, I am useless.

the new beetle is obviously a remake of the old, the new mini looks something like the old mini, but what the hell is that? Sure it has 4 wheels just like the old one, but what else?

Something that I have thought for a long while is that car manufacturers should bring back the old shape in a new car.

To market a new Polo or Jetta based VW with exactly the body shape of the original KG would, I am sure, be a big winner.

Imagine Holden re-issuing the EH Holden shape, or Ford doing it with the XY Falcon, with new mechanicals. I'm sure the order books would be full before production started.

Still, nothing beats the original..

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely,and in good condition- but rather tossed in sideways - Beer in one hand - chocolate in the other - body totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO, What a Ride"
