Hello
I an a new member (Emma) but you may have see my Beetles round Cardiff over the years.
Digby 1972.. I don't have a digital pic of my first one but it was briefly famous on an ITV Wales program about buying your first car. It was a looker but could not get round corners dew to massive alloys ad was so low speed bumps were a problem.

Herman (1969) A semi automatic, I has him for a long time but I list the battle with the rot.


Ollie (1971)


Than he was murdered by a ford focus


Now I have just got Hugo (1970)


He looks nice but need a lot of work.

Hello

I think i came to view to buy your black semi auto in Cathays? My mrs changed her mind about buying one but then changed it back again about a month later

Hi
Yep that was me, it when up to Birmingham in the end I don't know what the guy was planing to do with it, I would like to think he restored it but in reality it was most probably broken up.

Nice history - Hugo looks lovely!

Hugo is a heart breaker , I trusted my dad to go and buy him for me. As soon as I got underneath i found out he is as they say all fur coat and no kickers. Some one has spent a ton of money tarting him up but neglected the basics like the floor pan.
He will defiantly be a project.

Love your new Beetle!!

I am back in Cardiff but Hugo is not he has been bug napped by my dad and the work has started

good luck, lets hope you get him back soon.

some girls like bugs....we like girls that like bugs.
Holloo!

Good luck with the work! Hopefully see you at a club meet soon

good luck with the work - looks like a good base to start from

Fingers crossed I should make it to the next but I don't think it will be with Hugo my dad and his mate seem to be enjoying having a new project.

need any parts

Half of my dads fun is going round negotiating deals on parts but I will let you know when I get him back to cardiff

Well Hugo is back in Cardiff with MoT but after a ropey drive down he is off the road until I get him looked at

wots a matta

Just some small things like, problems finding 1st and 2nd gears but finding reverse where 2nd should be. I think the gear plate has been put back incorrectly. The speedo stopped working on the M42 which is always fun. That whats keeping it off the road, there are a load other things that were meant to be sorted.

Who was supposed to sort it for you?

The Shavenone will see you right!

For things don't feel confident doing my self at the weekend, it's booked in to the garage next week for

not cardiff classic
