Looking at a beetle on ebay wich stated that the whale tale and four outlet exhaust are not modifacations but original.ebay item number is 170430955236(sorry dont know how to post links)so i asked the seller if it was factory,the reply was that yes it was from the factory its called a Taura D sports and only 100 was imported into australia😂now have i missed something or has someone really fed the seller a whole lot of bull*hit.

can we hound the "special" people that claim to have something amazing which is in reality a hunk of junk, just thinking of this as well as the one 1303steve mentioned... theres at least 100 people on here that would confidently know their originals from the... well not, so perhaps about that many email queries would make them understand, just a thought 🙂

a joint venture between holden and volkswagen?

Have you considered the irony here? Of all VW's that had holden tail light donors, 90% of them have probably been thrown back into the blast furnace and are now driving around with holden badges on them.

What's the problem?
I've seen several beetles with factory whale tails. You ask the dicks that own them... 😂
How many original convertibles have you seen on ebay that are nothing more than a hot axe job.

There are those of us who know, & those who don't. You can't help but laugh though.

Well my friends are gone & my hair is grey, I ache in the places where I used to play.
