My Beetle!

So I travelled with my family all the way down to Devon in the summer of 2010 to pick up a 1302s VW Beetle I had bought on eBay...
My family have had VW Beetles and Bay Window Camper vans, so I knew what I was looking for, and judging by the listing the seller didn't know he was selling a bargain!

Upon arrival the Beetle was a gem especially at only £1300, it could've easily gone for £2000!

So I drove my little Beetle to college then work for about a year, then I fell pregnant and for space reasons had to revert to a Rover 25 (which I had no problems with!) and my parents sold their blue 1300 Beetle and adopted mine. 

Now my daughter is 17 months I have decided to give my Beetle another go - I have always missed it, especially when me and my whole family (Coventry based included) descend upon The Big Bang at Santa Pod Raceway and other VW festivals.

As of tomorrow I will have insured myself on my trusty little bug (tax exempt too... hell yeah!)

Does any one else own a VW car? My parents are about to purchase a VW Fastback which is also exciting!

Here's my beauty with our Puck (caravan)...


As you can see there is two tones of orange (I think it adds character!) And below is my parents bay window camper...


Family holidays to be posted! :) xxx
