new beetle newbie :)

[Golf Houso]

thats a very tastefully modified beetle... nice work!

Hmnn a sudden change of attitudes towards NB's on this forum...

Note that the exhaust tip in the last pic is now straight

Oh right didn't notice that at all!

didn't the mk2's have a funny 45' exhaust tip?

Nice car again... Whats the rev limiter set at for that 2.0l? Mines chipped, apparently... I only notice it after 2nd.

that front spoiler looks like it eats babies

welcome to the forum jess's other half, good on you for stopping the cabriolet business

[ang3lsholocaust]

thanks guys for the warm welcome to the forum.
have been cruizing through all the threads and you seem like a great bunch of people will have to meet up with some of you at the shows.
It took me a while to like the new beetle shape myself, after owning a 75beetle and restoring it, i knew i needed a reliable daily driver and knowing i couldnt get myself out of volkswagens i started looking at the new beetles and when i saw this one i knew i had to have it


cheers jess

nice car like the carectere body kit, very nice

[SoVeReIgN]

As someone said here the wheels are Audi but i am unsure on what model they have come off.

They're off the older RS4. Very popular with A3/A4/All VW owners!

Had a look at the beefy Beetle last night down at the local servo. Must say the bodykit makes the Beetle look supremely aggressive. Especially from the rear with that wing and center mounted exhaust. The wheels just finish everything off nicely.
Very nice vehicle Jess and good to meet you.
Cheers,
Trent

Welcome to the forum, the car looks fantastic, I can see why you couldn't resist it. Great photos as well.

Hey Trent.
Was nice to put a face to a name from this forum. Sorry i didn't get to chat much, being stuck behind the counter and all .
Thanks for the comments on the bug, we agree it looks tough too. But i'd be more then willing to hand over jess's keys for a trade with your R32

Not a problem mate. Customers are a pain aren't they. :p
Does Jess know you're offering for the swap? If the guys discussing brake pads have finished parting out my car maybe I'll take you up on that offer too.
