2001 Volkswagen Beetle

by quilt604 on 03-12-2013
Its cute as a bug
I love the shape and handling of this car. The flower holder is the bomb and easy to change with the seasons. No sunroof but air conditioning is great. The yellow color is fun and expresses me.

A nice smooth ride
This vehicle performs pretty well, decent on gas as well. I have not had any major issues with the car, and overall it is a very reliable vehicle. It handles pretty well and makes it fun to drive it. The Air Conditioning is very nice as well in the summer months as well.

Decent for everyday use
Over all the vehicle serves good for everyday use, and travel between cities. Its size does limit what you can bring for long distance travel however.

MY BEETLE!
Love my Beetle -- never a problem since i bought it (used). Fuel is great, and the Bettle style will never go out! Intend to buy a new one when this one is finished (whenever that might be -- everything is good, and have low mileage as well)

So sad to see it go!
I love my little bug, but my family has out grown it. I've spent so many sunny days with the top down enjoying the sun while driving. It's always been so good to me! I'll miss it but I hope the new owner loves it as much as I do!

2007 Volkswagen Beetle

Trim: Premium Package
by kate7560 on 02-21-2013
beautiful car
From an exterior design standpoint the new Beetle does impress, and from the first glance you’re aware that more time and thought has gone into perfecting its appearance. Step inside and you’re confronted by an unusually high dashboard that has been styled to replicate that of the original Beetle, complete with an old fashioned glovebox compartment in the fascia.

Amazing Space for a Small Car!
i actually got this car as a gift from my husband and i just love it to pieces. it's compact yet has just enough space on the inside to make you comfy. i find it somewhat reasonable on gas.

Good Old Bug
I have never encountered a problem with my bug in the years Ive owned her- She was second-hand but she's still going strong!

Not the most flashy, or the best of it's kind, but I can always rely on my car; Ive been stuck on the highway almost on empty, in horrible weather conditions- but Betty has always pulled through and got me where I need to be, Safe and sound.
If there was any other car Id trust my kids to learn in, it's betty my bug.

2003 Volkswagen Beetle

2003 New Beetle
Awesome on all the rating categories.

Never thought I'd own a New Beetle but now that I have one, it's been the best vehicle I ever owned. I drive monthly in all kinds of weather from Thessalon to Ottawa preferably at night. Out of a 55 litre tank I can get to Ottawa on 38 litres and still have enough left over to roam the city after the 700km drive. Studded tires for winter, HID driving, highbeam, and fog lights, diesel engine performance compute, rear spoiler and premium summer tires on performance aluminum rims are my ingredients to a great ride.

2005 Volkswagen Beetle

A Beauty in a Ride.
I have examined this vehicle inside and out. It rides smoothly, and is very efficient with fuel. The exterior is very eye-catching, and the comfort of the interior design is relaxing so that it can help with an easy drive. The inside stereo comes with adequate speakers, so if you want some awesome sound with your music, you can just play your troubles away.

This vehicle is amazing with its performance in more ways than one! Yes, it is expensive, but it is very well worth it.

1967 Volkswagen Beetle

by Raz_Barry on 01-08-2013
The best year for Beetles
This was, by far, the best VW Beetle I've ever handled. The best year for mechanical integrity and structural strength. I purchased it in Carpinteria, Calif. and drove it all over California, Arizona, New Mexico, Nevada, and Baja California...over smooth roads and harsh unpaved back roads. I never had any major issues with it and it is still roadworthy with the current owners. I wish they made more cars like that one.

1965 Volkswagen Beetle

by ingledoo on 12-29-2012
Family Member
I learned how to drive in this car sitting on the Vancouver phone book. Not only did I learn how to drive but I had to learn basic car maintenance. I learned how to recognize the difference between what belt going to a valve sticking sounded like and how to fix it myself. This familiarity between me and my car has served me well over all these years. I owe it all to my old friend Daisy the VW Bug. There never was a car that was tougher and got me through my growing pains more then she did. She taught me how to be inventive and a problem solver. Everyone should have had a Daisy in their past. She was a true pal to the end! It took a Ford truck to take her out. I was fine but she didn't make it. Sniff. Daisy RIP. I miss you. Michelle
