I figured I would do a quick walk-around and share the excitement. They are now available for test drives and purchase.

Meet the Jacksons and their lovely 72 Bus that they have named “Jacques”.

They ran into some issues while on vacation traveling the coast and left it with us to take care of the repairs. Suprisingly, it only took 2 days (Sunday included), a distributor cap and a few wires later to get them back on the road!

We were extremely excited that we were able to assist in getting them back on the road and we look forward to seeing them on their next trip. If you’re on the Northeastern Seacoast in the next week, you may just see them passing you on the highway or camping near the sea. :-)

Best of luck on your travels!

They are top notch in “live sounding” quality. Can’t wait for the Jetta GLI!

They have 3 different Beetles in the family and all of them are classics! This particular Beetle has ALL original interior with the exception of the rugs.  I look forward to seeing the others come by for some pics and also learning about these throwback vehicles. If you or someone you know has some classic V-Dubs like these, feel free to shoot me over some photos or stop in so we can check them out! We love seeing them.

When we revealed the all-new 2012 Beetle in April, it was love at first sight for Beetle fans. And, as it turns out, you can put a price on love: Volkswagen announced that the 2012 Beetle will have a starting MSRP of only $18,995*. The all-new Beetle is an automotive icon reinvented, an agile, driver-oriented coupe that offers exceptional features and premium options, all at very competitive pricing.
You can read the full details and model trims here at the Beetle Blog
