Frankly - avoid the Bug ! Get a Rabbit/Golf instead, you�ll get a car
that�ll take you 'round with lots of modern features like heat and handling
:-)
If you want to look cool - get a convertible
If you want to go in style - a GTI
And if you�re practical and look ahead - a TDI
With the last alternative you�ll get good mileage - and a perfect donor
vehicle the day you need a transplant for the WBX  :-)
