I think they should make the day it rolled off the line a global public holiday, so we can all go to the pub and drown our sorrows!

So has anyone looked into getting hold of one?
It would make a great addition to the collection. I doubt if you could drive it in Oz though, and quality may be a little dubious.
Maybe a group buy 😀
I'm in!!!

Hope the quality is better than the bumper bars and stuff that you get at the moment

If it wasnt for the single slot CD in the dash you would think you had travelled back in time to the 70's.
Old style body, flat screen. Acres of black crackel plastic. not an air bag in sight

I thought I read some where that they were $1500 dearer than the current standard Mexican Beetle which has NO CHROME whatsoever on it, all painted... :bounce:bounce:bounce:bounce:bounce:bounce

[size5] I wonder if the chrome is all triple plated to German specs... OR to Brazillian Specs with One fuzzy chrome coating then dipping them in salt water to have the rust built in ....:bounce:bounce:bounce:bounce
