I absolutely love my 1971 beetle! A 40 year old car is quirky to say the
least, but she was owned by her original owner up until I bought her and
she runs like a champ. Thanks goodness he took such great care of her.
I'm absolutely in love with my car.Apr 10, 2011

is the best car ever built because is so reliable, maybe not even a fast car but with 40 years old it looks much better than many new cars, performance is good and fuel consumption, it´s a Volkswagen what else you need to knowMar 01, 2011

Performance = FUN!
Build Quality = FUN!
Appearance = FUN!
Cost of Ownership = FUN!
Fun Factor = FUN!
What can I say....My First car.....a traffic cone orange 71 "Flat Screen" Bug with Banana Bumpers.....only those "in the know" know what I'm on about! The most fun I've ever had driving (and fixing) a car.....mine's personality was different from anyone one else's....as was everyone else's I know who ever owned one.....THE ABSOLUTE MOST AWESOME CAR EVER!!!!!! I would take one on the Pan-American or Mongol Rallye any day!!!
Tools required: Hammer, 3 screw drivers, one crowbar, bailing wire and gaffer tape......and they all fit in the glovebox!Feb 20, 2010

Just your run of the mill super beetle nothing special here. It has a stock 1600DP engine with a H30/31 carb and SVDA distributor. Cheap to drive and maintain an awesome car to own and gets looks and conversations started!!!! Sweeeeet.Apr 14, 2009

i do not drive a stock 1971 VW bug. The car that i drive is modded to be a Baja style car. It has a decent lift and ride on 29 inch tires. The engine is mounted in the rear and is air cooled. I do not have vacume lines or an oil filter. No need for them . Though i do plan on adding an external oil cooler. Dec 24, 2008

The bug that we own is a beut. One of only a couple thousand made during the early 1970s, ours has a rounded front windshield, a sunroof, and a gold paintjob (which I guess was special for the time). I'll get more info up soon, but yeah.Mar 21, 2008

Awesome car that couldn't go over 120kph without drafting and when I did that I blew a chunk out of the engine. Bought for $3100, sold for $700, loved every cent, kilometer and bit of it.Nov 05, 2007

I brought the car after it was parked for 20 years. A new battery, starter, fuel pump and fuel line and I had it on the road.
That pretty much says it all.Jul 06, 2007
