It took me a long time to see the VW light .............. 46 older than the bloomin bus!!

:lol: :lol:
 
i was 18, in 2003. And it was my daily from then until 2007 when i took it off the road to restore it!
 
First car was a Bug in 1989, I was 21. Ive always had at least one aircooled all the time since.
First bay was in 1993.
 
Got the bus, my first aircooled, at the end of 2008....
We are both celebrating....or hiding from....our 40th's this year!!
Took me too long to persuade my wife to let me have one!
 
I was 18 and 2 months when I got my '71 Dormy.

Drove it daily for 2-3 years...
 
I was 32 :msn4: - seems I missed a step and didn't get a bug when younger! - I was into triumphs & mini's - air-cooled were even then expensive compared to British classics (around '94)

wouldn't have gone air-cooled if it hadn't been for sibling rival with my brother who now also has a type 3 as well as his 68 EB :evil: (the race is still on!) - I now even have an air-cooled motorbike 8)

You're not alone, I'm 4 years older than my bus, but feel about 20 when driving it. Although my missus says I'm trying to relive my youth with it lowered and a big engine planned..... :lol:
