Should it stay or should it go !

My wife and I just bought another vehicle .. a Volvo V70 Sport Wagon with the 247HP T5 turbo engine, geartronic gearbox, fully loaded

This wagon HAULS A$$, even with 2 booster seats in the back for the kids

So the dilemma is this: I am now driving the Accord, the wife drives the V70, and that leaves the beetle sitting in the garage on jackstands gathering dust.

I probably will not drive it this summer as there is no need to ... What to do, what to do ...

the T5 is surely a nice engine !

A local company autotech put them to the limit

But it's nowhere as fun as a turbobug will ever be! I can promise you that!

Here is what will happen: you'll sell the beetle, then every morning you'll wake up regretting selling it, and you will miss it a great deal.

After the Boxer AG meet last night, I have made up my mind.

I'll finish the turbo engine this winter and have it ready to sell as soon as the roads are clear enough to drive.

In case you are wondering .... Bryan brought by his 911 SC to the meet ...

We will see how you feel about it when you have finished and drove your turbo bug
