Hi all, just thought I'd introduce myself. I have always loved bugs, got my first back in 1994 when I was 24. However, I fell pregnant and thought a bug wasn't really very practical for a baby seat, so we sold her.

After a couple of dodgy gift cars, we ended up with a great Kombi a year later, which we kept for 3 years. We only sold that to buy and convert a Toyota Coaster into a camper-van to go round Aussy. By the time we got back a year or so later, we had #2 on the way, so didn't buy another VW at that time. Then #3 & 4 came along..... You get the picture.

Now, my eldest is off and away and my youngest is 8, so when my latest BIG car got traded in on my hubby's latest Defender, and he asked what car did I WANT?

My answer was, another beetle. after looking, himself trying to talk me into an old Holden of one variety or other, me keeping tracking back to a beetle....

We found a little beauty in Dunsborough. Unlicensed though she was, she was in great shape. So, we drove down from Perth, bought her, and drove her home....

Welcome on board and congratulations on your new arrival. I look forward to seeing your pictures.

This is Fräulein Helga on her drive home from Dunsborough, not that she was named then...
