Year | Spec | Author | Fan Tributes to the Volkswagen Beetle. |
---|---|---|---|
1976 | 1.3 | Renan Karni says... | You can't argue with a 50 year production streem. |
1971 | 1300 | Emma Walker says... | Why not! |
1972 | 1300 | Peter Dallaway says... | What can you say. It is a buzz to drive. Basic but enough. It still has an appeal to it that makes people want to buy them and do them up to look good. |
2003 | 1.4 | smart says... | Totally unique styling, eye-catching, chic & functional. |
1998 | New Version | Mr. Whittaker says... | Took the brilliant classic Beetle as the starting point and took it to the new millenium. It also spawned lots of wannabes, like the Mini, PT Cruiser etc. |
1970 | 1.3 + | Mr. Reid says... | This car is an affordable classic, it is a treasure to own and full of character, especially the 1970's convertible. The new shape is just as popular and the design is inkeeping with the original look, plus it comes with a little flower on the dashboard which is a cute touch!!! |
1960 | any | stamford-crane says... | They're costly, drive badly and rule over any car ever made in appearance! with the most character in a car you can find. |
1965 | - | Clifford Friday says... | They still haven't worked out a better design. |
194 | 1600 | raybeer beer says... | They just keep going on and on. |
1974 | 1.4 | Paula Morrison says... | They just have so much character. |
1950 | any | mr. bates says... | The shape of the body and the noise of the engine. it all gives the beetle a character all of its own. |
1967 | 1500 | Mr. Swinney says... | The original VeeDub Beetle is ultimately the most classic of classic cars. Most people on the car-driving planet have been exposed to one of these little beauties at some stage of their life. It is a marvel of engineering and production has done more for motoring than any vehicle ever created. With out this, we would not have the Porsche line of vehicles and in particular the 911. The year and model specified above was a particularly good year for the VW beetle a change over year so inheriting the good looks of earlier models but at the same time enhancing the engineering of the car to make it more driveable. These cars only ran a short production life so are now rare and collectable. Each generation pushes the limits of the Beetle ever further, and now with its rebirth (albeit as a better-looking golf!), it will go on inspiring and bringing joy to millions more people for many years to come. |
1936 | Convertible | John Murphy says... | The original convertible beetle - with the roof down on a sunny day - is the world's coolest car ever! |

0 | - | steph Constable says... | Quirky like me. |
1930 | - | Jane Clarke says... | Put simply, this car is a design icon. For a vehicle that was designed 70+ years ago it doesn't look out of place in modern traffic, but at the same time it stands out from todays computer designed soulless econo-boxes. |
1954 | Type 2 | Keith Lee says... | Oh please - like there needs to be a reason!! We're talking the most classic, cult, admired vehicle ever. |
1946 | - | Michael Rochfort says... | Obvious - sold more than any other car with no change to basic design. Uncomplicated and reliable. Still a car with a large cult following. |
1973 | 13 | john bratton says... | Most reliable very rarely break down cheap to run. |
2004 | Cabrio 2.0ltr | Robert Harold Antrobus says... | Most fun for the money you can have with the roof down. Mine is knicknamed the Tardis despite its small boot opening it swallow a suprising amount of stuff! |
1960 | 1300 | DAVID GARRITY says... | More cool that a cool thing on a cool day. |
2001 | cabriolet | carol chan says... | Looks good, because Jeremy Clarkson thinks they are uncool. |

1930 | 1300 | Philip James says... | It is known all over the world no matter where you go you will see at least 1 of some description. Try finding another car that has been produced in as many numbers that you can still find prime examples of. |
1940 | (old style) | Lee Barber says... | I'm a biker by nature but this is the only car, that I have owned, which always made me smile when driving it. I would buy another one. It was a classic, bullet proof car with loads of character. |
