With all this talk about VWs and the Tour de France, I forgot to
mention a cool VW sighting in the Tour's "Caravan." (The
Caravan consists of sponsors' cars, floats, trucks, etc. that come
through the day's stage route about an hour before the riders.)
T-Mobile had two very nice-looking vintage VWs in the Caravan: a bus
(loaf) and a bug, both fully restored. They both featured the T-Mobile
"chime/ring" that you hear on the commercials as their horn sound. I
wasn't fast enough to get a full photo of the bus, but you can see the
back end in this photo:
