Title: New VW Beetle TDI.
Post by: Viking on 30 October 2012, 19:34

It started a couple of months ago when we started looking for either a Beetle or a Mini for our daughters birthday. Then a couple of weeks ago she sold her Ibiza and the search began in earnest. Found a nice one in South Wales which ticked all the right boxes so bought it. This was how it started.

Drove it back from Cardiff last Sunday, stopped briefly in Nuneaton to collect a set of alloys & tyres, and then dropped it straight into VW Knaresborough for a cambelt/water pump change. Picked it up from there on Tuesday, then up to mother in laws where Paul (Just Dents) knocked out a few scars. Then up to my mates barn where it was washed, polished, vaxed, new alloys fitted, new numberplates, handsfree kit fitted, and generally tarted up.

Saturday morning she was given the key as a present.  :laugh:  And this is what she got.

She was well chuffed, and yes the Beetle's in very good nick. Hope it stays like that.
