Orange vw beetle 68

Very nice build as a Beetle lover both as a daily driver of five a few years back and in models, the engine also stands out as a work of art getting it all in.

I also like the trailer hitch/tow bar as we used to have a sea blue Beetle (70's). We tried a roof rack first for all of our holiday kit driving up our A5 road to North Wales, which seemed to be the solution to our lack of interior space. But................on the return journey we wanted to call into a town to get food for home and the only place we could find to park was a multi-storey car park. I'd forgot about the roof rack and the height limit foiled me and the concrete overhang caught the rack and knocked it off it's legs and dented the roof!

I then invested in a towbar which are so easy to fit and hiring a small alloy trailer from then on, a far better choice, although reversing into a space could be a slight chore at times!
