1968 Volkswagen Beetle review from Australia and New Zealand
"Excellent car, take care of them and they last forever I know! Because ive owned one for 38 years."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing major has gone wrong with the car, still has the original 1600cc Twin port engine that came with it back in 1968...
General comments?
I love my Volkswagen beetle, I bought it brand new back in 1968 for $21 thousand I think. its blue and still is original. the one bad thing about it is they don't handle hot hot days very well.
