So i was up early on a lovely Sunny Monday morning.... decided that Im driving a Cal looker this week, nipped out to the garage, fired up Don's car, took for a wash, then went too work, had a couple of meetings so it was fun just driving a bug again, seeing kids and adults at the lights saying "look its a beetle" filled up with fuel and now parked in drive awaiting tomorrows adventure...great fun. Will post some more photos over the week of any outings we have Ps Don, thanks for a great car, i love it pure and simple.

That's all fine and dandy, Russell. But did you sport the correct shorts on your drive? Surely the car was sold with a pair??

Very cool car Russell, fingers crossed for a Scottish Summer that let's us get the 'toys' out frequently! There's nothing to beat the waves and smiles while listening to serious induction roar
