1964 Volkswagen Beetle review from Greece
"Something between a mule and a woman"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing that could not be predicted.
All you need to avoid things like that is to be gentle and learn how to "hear" the car running.
General comments?
Predictable and reliable car.
Not for drivers that have great expectations on speed or comfort.
Mostly for retro lovers and people who know how to enjoy a ride with their almost "handmade toy".
