Saw a White Beetle on "Heartbeat" tonight...

Have seen glimpses of it before....

White late beetle with top cut off it....

Black convertible top..... [Not Karmann Cabriolet]

New Police car was a Ford Zephyr.... UK Made... UGLY..
Yes... early sixties model....
so the Beetle is the incorrect model for that year....

The way they zoomed in on it, I thought something was going to happen to it or the person driving it...

but it was just scenery....

Hi Lee

I love spotting incorrect model VWs in TV shows and movies, I guess the producers think they are all the same.

im the same it cracks me up when producers try and recreate a whole scene from ages ago
as sad as it was i laughing the otherday whilst watching the granville train accident movie "day of the roses" which was set in 74 i think but all the car parks were full of 90s model cars
and the brand new 180B datto with a sony tape deck and aftermarket gear knob LOL
