I'm just curious. My next VW will be a NB Cabriolet in probably December next year, assuming the 1.8t with the automatic roof is here by then. Otherwise I'll wait until it is released.

Green T4 ·

I've had my next VW for the last 5 1/2 years (the Green T4).

Stop already just bought my second last week, don't tempt me. How many can one person have? lol

Now have '58 beetle and '70 sqback, I'm content 🙂

the shire bug ·

My next vw would be an oval but as I have just purchased my 68 and just introduced my wife to the world of vw's I think I will have to wait a while🙁

Dont' want to offend anyone, but my current project is still about 8 grand away from completion. And here's the offensive bit: my next project will be a mild, gas powered EF Falcon - I love the VWs, but they don't hold enough gear for work (well, a Kombi does and I love 'em, but the running costs make them a bit impractical for high-mileage work,) and the falcon will cost less!

70AutoStik ·

PS That might not be completely true... But the poll is a bit limited. I may well buid a purely off-road VW to scare the V8s on the salt/mud flats before I leave this hell-hole... I've still got my eye on a chassis at the "recycler's" and our mechanic happens to have some hubs modified to take holden wheels (read cheap and readily available.)

vwrallycar ·

i really want a 1303 as my next volkswagen.
i will not buy a new vw again.
instead i want an XR6 TURBO

Che Castro ·

i really want a early bug karmann cabriolet, preferably 64 or earlier

bus914 ·

hmmm... i think i'll get me a genuine notchback cabriolet prototype, British racing green, white Monaro stripes, with nos keel rims, slammed, with a twin turbo 2110. ...yeah, i think that would be pretty cool.

KruizinKombi ·

My next project changes weekly, I just can't decide which one to work on first!:o

twobus ·

Well first comes the 66 PMG van resto ! Then comes the 65 Kombi with type 4 power front discs lowered 4 inches irs rear 16 inch Hyper fangs, and mazda yellow bottom and polar white top, may even do the leather upholtery my son wants

IDOVWS ·

It will be a 72 Sbag for the Targa Tasmania in 2003/04




TORQUE IS EVERYTHING

Mad Manx ·

I think If I bought another car it would be a baja beetle to complement my manx. But as I already have four cars I dont think It will be any time soon!😎

KOM123 ·

My dream for a second car (our first is a '76 Kombi camper) would be a restored 8 seater Kombi with air-conditioning 🙂

Grey 57 ·

My next VW would be a Type 3 Karmann Ghia - Razor Edge. Not everyones cup of tea but I luv em. Lowered with a type 4 2.? whatever and a 5 speed porshe box. Kool.

I'm dreamin tho cause I would have to sell the oval to get it, and I couldn't do that cause I want them both.
Oh and the fact I havn't got any money. 🙁

Phil74Camper ·

Well I'm still working on my Kombi; it's still a few months away from being completely finished.

But when it is...I've always wanted a Manx. For the street though, not off-road. In candy-apple red metal-flake, with lots of chrome. Wide chrome VW wheels. And a rumbly exhaust. And a nice interior.

Would be much nicer than a Jap convertible sports car (which I'm trying to be talked into at the moment, without any luck so far)

Buger Gary ·

I have a 60 beetle in my mums shed already,But I would realy like to do a split
Kombi(standard on the outside and modern on the inside)

Quickbug ·

The 70somthing L bug with Carerra kit, modded up, newly rebuilt and painted with my 1916cc in will be the next vw on the road shortly.
Lots to do still tho....

penguin ·

I think I had best get the current one ('56 Oval) finished before I start dreaming of the Kombi!!!!!!!

4WDDubnut ·

My latest is a 71 Red Panel. She is the prettiest thing!! Photos to follow.:thumb:thumb:thumb:thumb

Doug Sweetman ·

Well, my next one is the Porsche Guards Red '73 1303 with the 1835, counterweighted crank, forged pistons, fully balanced, twin IDF's, stage 2 cam deep sump etc etc. Its getting electrics and finishing touches done as we speak (should be finished in a week or so, at which stage I will take some photos and post them). Its been 18 months coming (due to 2 trips round the world on work..... who can complain ?)

Maybe I should have bought that 55 oval for $500 last year..... man I love ovals 🙂 way cleaner shape than the 1303's

Grey 57 ·

Welcome to the oval bunch Doug. :thumb

aggri1 ·

I wanna splittie, bus that is. Financial considerations are the only thing holding me back right now, and that will soon be sorted (hehehe - now just 'cause I live in Melbourne, don't go gettin' any ideas!)

CoopGirl ·

I am hoping our next VW is a squareback, on the premis that I can sell my Charade (anyone wanna buy a car??). I need more room with the next bundle of joy arriving in 8 weeks.

HotRodMatt ·

Yeah so no one buy it before the Charade sells!

I want Coopgirl and the kids to be wearing my illustration as t-shirts....
