Im still stuck on the colour. about 10 years ago a friend of mine had a bright red beetle with a whale tail on the back. That looked smart in red???? We cruised around Weston from morning till night at the weekends in her. Does any one remember it, you could'nt miss it with the massive spoiler on the back???

HHHHHHEEEEEELLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPPP....
Does anyone have a bug the same as mine in weston? Ive noticed some crease's in the wheel well, i think it might have had a tap on the front? If i could look at one of yours it will be a massive help?

Nice to meet you earlier Steve, apologies for flatulent daughter, can't imagine where she get's it from.......

Like I said if you need to suss anything out again just let me know. Ask questions of the guys on here too, don't tell them I said this but there are some pretty clever and knowledgable dudes on here.
Some of the threads may seem to go a bit off tangent but everyone who posts up is sound and in one way or another be willing to help you out.
