^^^   :laugh:

if i had the money i would have one in my stables  :innocent:

slower than you would think from stock but the handling characteristics of a housefly  :evilgrin:

Ditto, but like the idea of the Herbie 53 vinyl wrap :happy2:

....Nah, it would be sacrilege to cover up such a rare car. They are very fine if you've seen one in the flesh - A modern classic imo.

I Love that RSI. It was at GTI International a few years back and looked gorgeous in the flesh. He's also added the CF doorskins since too :drool:

£40k for that car is cheap for the work done, never mind the base car :happy2:

Someone I know went over to Germany and bought one for less than £15k totally standard, it was  :drool: He sold it very recently for £20k+  :surprised: Definately a classic as they only made 252, the odd 2 belonged to VW which were the only ones painted blue!

My first NB was a LHD and after a fewe hours I actually enjoyed the whole LHD thing. Well until it came to overtaking, but to be fair in a 2ltr Bug I wasnt gonna be overtaking much! :rolleye:
