1979 Volkswagen Beetle Preview summaryImage
I presently own a 1979 VW Bug Convertible, Triple White with 23,000 original miles. It drives like a dream. I have owned it for 10 years and have put about 2,000 miles on it. It is an extremely comfortable ride.

The Volkswagen Beetle went downhill from 1972. By 1973, smog control had already started to choke the H4 engine to death and by 1975, VW had introduced fuel injection, which was a disaster. The 1972 Beetle is the best. The old style Volkswagen had become too expensive to make. The Karmann Ghia died in 1974. The bug lasted a few years longer due to modular body construction, but VW was cutting costs everywhere.Oct 02, 2023

it's the best thing that hetler has made in his entire life, it's the strongest car i have ever seen, it got the best perfomance if it is compared with all the cars, it's designed to withstand the hardest roads or even the rocky roads, all what i can say that it is the german miracle .Sep 02, 2009
