i need a beetle :-)

broke the news to my better half that i think we need a beetle ... she wasnt to impressed with the idea ,pointing out i have already got 3 classic vehicles .. so as i pointed out whats one more ! am i be unreasonably wanting another car oh and no i cant sell any of them to make way for one

 

Completely selfish and unreasonable...

What color/type/Year you buying ...?

 

im looking at a 1972 painted in dove blue all very original you know

 

I would love either a beetle or a karmann ghia

You only live once so do it if you can.

 

No you don't. You need a Golf.

 

seems your a bit late , @Joe G just got a nice one off of woody ,s misses

 

I am looking around for a nice Morris Minor. I had one as my first car and loved that car, so easy to work on and very reliable.

 

Do it

Its an investment opportunity

 

Do it we sold Mrs ktd's 1970 last year I regretted it before it got out of sight being driven off by the new owner and I still regret it now

 

haha, Mrs Monkey has a beetle! It's her car & is called Marge. Be careful what you wish for, my point being that I'm reasonably certain she'd get rid of me before Marge
A standard 1200, 1976, not the most desirable or the coolest in many peoples eyes....but one of the most loved

 

I have a 68/69 crossover which needs
A lot of work if that's of any interest?

 

I should add it's a beetle.....not an oap

 

A 1965 morris minor was my first car, light blue, 2 door. I fitted it with a sprite twin carbs engine and spax adjustable shox's. Brilliant little car even on 145 cross plies.

 

so the better half has agreed i can have a beetle , going to look at one on sunday hopefully

 

If folks have an air cooled van, why get a Beetle.

Why not try something completely different like a Morris Minor, a true British classic car, very easy to work on and maintain, great to drive, plenty of good ones out there to buy and quite cheap too.

 

Cos Beetles are cool and moggys are just old and not

 

Are cool and fast

 

Everyone should have a Beetle to jump in for the few occasions that the bus is too much! It's the law...

 

I sometimes wonder about getting something else but always hold back because I am not sure I want to share the love. If I did it would be a Beetle though
