2004 Volkswagen Beetle review from UK and Ireland
"Not just a pretty face"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing at all has gone wrong, as is expected from a Volkswagen.
General comments?
It is quick, makes a great noise and drives superbly.
When you drive it people look at it, it doesn't just look good its excellent underneath also.
The rear space is o.k, but it isn't designed for a family's everyday car.
I also drive a larger car for family trips etc. but the Beetle is good for driving around town, but the 2.0 engine can easily cope on a motorway.
The only downside is that the visibility is poor, the ends of the car cannot be seen and it has the biggest dashboard I have ever seen.
