the only place ive seen info on this is a Type 3 brochure thats got the 3 models on it and the cars are all red. It shows a Notch fastback and wagon. the brochure also shows the tacho and consoul.

i know the one i think..
maybe i am thinking that just because all type 3 brochures were red cars?

anyone got a general story on the front badge?

cheers!

As fas as i know....
it was a AUS only badge...

It was run on the last models....


That seems to be why they are not found in good condition.

Around that time lots of car producers were going crazy over Badges.
GT badges GTS badges...SSS and such..

VW australia got onto the bandwagon and thats why...

(Article found on net somewhere)
