I had a lil' bug in UK about 15 years ago, loved that car, called it my 'jelly mould' :D Now I have a Prius, I know they get the piss taken out of them, but I love it, cheap, cheap, cheap!! I fill it up every 2 weeks, costs me less than $25 each time. (miss my pacifica though, that was a nice drive)

Did you get a good deal on it? The dealers must be salivating at the idea of a sale these days...

Hi:

I last owned a bug in 1976 -- my first and only to be sure -- 1968, Green, last year with the swing axles, 1500 single port engine.
