Police blow up suspicious device in VW Beetle
I know people can think of VW Beetles as bombs, but this is taking it a bit to the extreme isn't it?

I see the forum hasn't changed much.
Your right 1916. If they looked under my dash they would be suspicious as well.

FFS, whats wrong with you people?? its not a veiw of the forum, or the owners, or the minions who guide its direction.
I personally made a comment about how I personally feel about others slagging off a type of VW car, knock ford or holden all you like, i really dont
care, but lets have abit of TLC in the VW forums and circles there in.
we are all on these sites for the common good, the help, advice, admiration, and adoration of the VW marque. lets keep it that way. is it that hard?

At least the car wasn't damaged.
An M80 wouldn't cause that much damage. Some new carpet and maybe a touch up spray and they are on their way again.

Yes their are a lot of people who think that Volkswagen stopped making cars in 1967 , but I don't think that h is one of them,it's just a running
gag to knock the latter cars ,a bit of fun.I wonder how this story would be reported if it was a Hebmuller at risk of destruction.

You guys can all stop arguing. Because it's not a fatchick.
It's just a standard later model, ball joint front, not a Superbug.
