1976 Volkswagen Beetle Base review from UK and Ireland
"Personality on four wheels"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Over the years I have performed a complete restoration, it is now kept as a second car and is treated more like a pet!
General comments?
Cheap parts and for the time it is on the road it is very reliable, tons of character and people always stop to chat about it.
I will NEVER sell this car.
