My beetle was my first car and was my parent's first car when they bought it from the dealer with 200 miles on it. I know that the car has been maintained and have the whole history on any bit of work that was done to it.

There was a Silver Remmele beetle in an old copy of VolksWorld that I saw and said to myself ... That is one BAD *** beetle ! So this is what got me started.

What keeps me going is driving my bug everyday in the summer. With 2.0L T4 power, its like driving a modern car, only its aircooled ! I LOVE driving my bug. This winter, I'm switching over to 18" wheels and 993 Biturbo / 944T brakes so I can be ready for the 'Track' season for 2004.

The best thing for me about a GLVW is form and function .. a car I can drive to work everyday, and also take to the circuit when I feel like it. I'm an ex 125cc shifter kart racer so I need to drive fast every once in a while ! In my area there are 3 major racetracks with a 4th in construction so 2004 will be AWESOME !
