Thought i would show off my beetle.
Just picked it up last week.

paint job in perfect condition, interior really good.
Runs beautifully.
So much fun to drive!!!

And a very big thankyou to Scott for helping me with the pictures!!!

Way Cool
Gotta love that, now just sit back and look at all the middle aged kids waving at you!! Ill be one of them..:thumb:thumb:thumb
Rob...

yeah its amazing how many people dont know who Herbie is!!!
Heaps of them actually.
Spose the older people know Herbie and only the young enthusiasts do!!!!

Been showing people the dvd so they can love it as much as me!!!!

Glad that everyone can now see your new purchase

Good to see another fine Herbie. :thumb

Very nice you must be very pleased.
I know you will have lots of fun driving around in Herbie.

thanks guys.
You cant really see in the picture properly but its in beautiful condition.
I will be at Carribean Gardens for the show and swap meat.
That day is the last day i will have my licence before it is suspended for 3 months due to some speeding issues!!!

Gota make the most of the day!!!

I swear herbie is multiplying. LOL.

Good score looks wicked!
I'm down and out for 12 months thanks to my heavy right foot as well

Speeding !!!

If ya got it use it !!!

I'm touching wood right now ! Carn't afford any of those would have to move closer to work if lost mine....

Yeah its a bugger.
It takes me over 1 hour to drive to work each day. Luckily there is a guy who i work with that is relatively close to my house so he is going to take me and drop me off.

This new law sucks.
If you are a P plater and loose more than 5 points in 1 year you loose it for 3 months.

I am going to hate it!!

Think i lucky io grew up in the uk, none of that rubbish for me. Just transfered licence over no worries !!!
or i'd never have a car that i could legally drive !!!

Your lucky to have someone close buy.

U get that. nice ride, looks like a very nice example. *POP!* Arrrghh! there's another one!................*POP!**POP!**POP!* [size=1]runaway! the herbie's are invading!ARRGHhhhhhhh!.......[/size]

We were considering painting our beetle in that scheme. It is just so cool.

We didn't go that way in the end, but we still like it heaps. :thumb

glad to hear you all like it.
I want to rip the interior lining out. Its a mesh type material and is ripped and dirty and i can but carpet or something and replace it.
Does anyone know where to buy this or should i get it professionally done??

you can import german squareweave carpets and coco mats from the u.s.a and its way cheaper than buying here and is easy to instal.And the best interior trim on the market.Imagine your herbie slammed with your 5 spokes on him.

yeah except i sold them with the car.
The girl who bought them wasnt fussed at all. I dont think she even liked the wheels, i should of taken them but i didn't know what i was buying at that time!!!

Is there a website i can contact for this car trim place??

so you sold your purple vw with the 5 spokes what a bummer wonder if who bought would consider selling em.Anyway here is the site with the best resto parts interior wise.If you decide to order u2u me first and will get you a discount.
http://www.classicvws.com 
the company is called westcoast classic restoration.

your a legend.
I think she would sell them, not sure. I have her details. I will contact her if you are interested.
