The Love Bug

[destinationtoby]

So I picked up this little VW beetle for the missus ( she FUKING hates it) has litterally been driven twice since I bought it a month ago, so now I'm just gonna start playing with it. Some plans: Going for the purple on black look, black badges,wheels illegal tint, maybe a black pin stripe and whatever other trim/lips I can find. Slam it on some king springs & deck it out with a sound system. Also give the faded roof & bonnet a clear coat.
In the mean time, If anyone wanted to swap me their half decent FTO for the bug, I'd probably do it
Some specs:
Comfy leather interior
Custom purple paint job with a blue pearl.
Aftermarket twin zorst system
Rims
Factory vase built into the dash with factory flower, yess u heard right, factory fuking flower.
Lots of power picksup FKN quick as.

I'll keep the thread updated with mods

I actually like them ...

I was looking at one when they first came out, as a daily drive ... Something for me and the Mrs to get around in. I was looking at Silver though... Dropping it a little, a dark set of tints, and good rims, these things look hot.

I was trying to get the 2ltr Turbo they were meant to bring out, but I believe it got dropped at the last minute, and only the 2ltr was sold in Aus.

But a very comfy car.. I did hear they were notorious for problems though, but not sure if this was restricted to a certain year model.

Mostly the Cabrio was the troublemaker, and was exclusive to certain years as they changed manufacture country.

We got the 1.8T and 2.0, along with the shudder worthy 1.6 and 1.8 variants.
The T and 2.0 are both good strong motors, engines and gearbox are a good match.

Weak points include power windows, interior plastic fit and warp, dash board lcd and... something else which eludes my mind.
Everyday I think of buying 1.
I wanted the original prototype over the mass produced brother.

This is a strange car club right here. Last car (almost) I would have thought would be discussed in a positive light.

Funny, all of those are fine on mine.
Roof lining is sagging everywhere. Was quoted $500 to fix. Might try find some fabric suitable glue and just give it a go myself.
And I think they recalled a heap,because of a faulty wire from the alternator to the battery being a too small a gauge & causing it to melt and blow fuses n sh*t. Luckily I joined the new beetle forum and did a Abit of research, took mine in and got it changed for $50.
