I never saw an Irish beetle in standard trim before (with the blanked off c pillar vents). You learn something new every day!

psychodelic/dead alien remains decoration engine bay award?

Biggest ever fuel filter award?

Its more interesting than most on Donedeal just for the questions that it raises - like why remove the bonnet handle but not the engine bay handle?

What ate the door card up to speaker level?

Are the seats really angled towards each other like that?

i seen it a couple of months ago in the flesh so to speak, it looked solid enough but there was too many things i didn't like. (see above) but the wing beadin was sprayed, vents, interior etc etc. the paint was a tad off too. i'd say it could be a solid base but i think its a little expensive. maybe makin up for the alloys? jaysus i hope nobody in here owns it. basically i'd go for brendans bug first though.

ah I know, it's all in good fun!! You're right, people make the weirdest claims on their ads, such as the "show winning" comment above. Another good one is from the clairvoyant sellers: "first to see will buy". :ROFLMAO:

I wonder is that one of the Bugs that was in the Bugweiser Club in the 90's? I must dig out some old pics to see.

I knew I recognised it, well not so much the car but the colour fade on the engine tinware. It was in the Bugwieser VW Club back in 1993/4.

At the Limerick Show or Beetles Reunion as it was called then. I think this was '93 or '94

The Bug may have been painted but the tinware is the same. It's holding out well considering it's nearly 20yrs old!
