Very cool bug in Erko !
Hello !
On my way home last night i saw a very very cool bug driving up Erskinville Road then saw it again parked outside the Rose of Australia Hotel in
Erskineville - looked white with a burgundy racing stripe, roof racks and back wheels covered and possibly red/burgundy interior ! It looked very
sweet !
Anybody know if it lives in the area?
Cheers

Thats MY bug !
Yeah , the erko bug is mine. you will find it parked outside the Rose of Australia alot, my best mate owens the pub 
thanks for your comments, i think the old girl is a bit ruff ... but she it very solid / no rust what so ever ! ... and is still running the original
motor.... not bad for a daily driver that was built in 57.
the names , Finn .... next time you see me , come up and say HI !

hey bug crazed girl...
flog the laser quick... every day you wait it depriciates yet those fun loving body melting heart stopping vw's are appreciating. and being in
sydney the sooner you have your baby the better the drive in peak hour.
i noticed how much nicer everybody was when i was driving around in the bus. they would happily let you change lanes, wave to you and even chat at
lights. amazing who you would meet on the daily grind to work.
am i stirring the pot?
