my "vw" birthday
whatnow - January 20th, 2009 at 10:05 PM

i was digging though an old box over the weekend and by pure chance found the receipt for the first vw i ever bought, dated 21-1-1995.

so happy vw birthday to me for tomorrow.

some how i don't think i'll convince my wife to ice a cupcake with a vw symbol.

does anyone else know exactly when it all went pearshapped?

My Grandpa told me he was selling his beetle at my 21st birthday, and that I had first dibs. I spent the rest of the party scrounging money from relatives.

The day I finally picked Wolf up (after grandpa had gone away on holiday for a few months) was September 14 1996.

you'd have the be rather excellent to be born towards the middle of '75 :)

the Wolf was very lucky to end up with you as an owner... beautiful car.
