Always on the look out for anything VW, last Saturday's Sydney Morning Herald's Drive section had a three page article of the soon to be released in Oz new, new Beetle.

Few articles on the net here is one of them, I have said it before and here it is again shes's got a bit of a Porsche 356 look about her I reckon, what do you think?

Does have a Porsche look about it.
Looks better than the older new Beetle.

This new new beetle looks closer to the AC beetle than the old new beetle did. Well the sloping back does anyway.

Front looks shocking though 🙅 They always ruin it by trying to give personality. You are suppose to give character not personality.😬
