Had my bay for a few months now and have been to a few shows and met up with a fine bunch of fellow dubbers and I am being told once you have one ie the bus... you have to have the other! ie a beetle IT's THE LAW! :)

So whats say you? do you have both or is one enough fun/trouble :lol:

came fairly close to owning both last week by the way :shock:
 
he he oh yeah think it is the law :lol: :lol: has to be at least 2 vw's not sure of which form they need to be though
 
I've got one of each - so I've almost always got at least one vehicle that works!

Saw your van at the KDC meet - if the bug is in such good condition that'd be a fantastic collection 8)

I wish! blew all my hard earned on the bus the beetle would be a project me thinks...saying that the bus has rapidly turned into a project too!

I think i will get one but only once the bus is how i want it :wink:
 
Me and my house mate own these:

'68 Bus, '63 Bug.

So I kind of have access to both.. 8)
 
yeah that does look cool! your very own convoy!

If only you could drive em both at the same time :lol:

I think i'd go for a racing style one stripped out with a tasty bit of kit in the back... all in good time

any more pics of bus n beetle together folks?
 
yep its the law, i allways have a project on the go,4 vws at present 3 on the road and 1 project,it keeps me out of the missuses hair
 
We have the Bus and a New Beetle does that count?

all my cars are Vag though, my daily is a TT, my 10 month old daughter even has an electric beetle, she cant touch the pedals yet though lol
 
I've had my bus for bang on 12 months now..... looking for a Karmen now for the mrs. to run.. "just gets ya hooked"
 
Helen will let me get a KG cabriolet when the bus is finnished, kinda fancy the idea of an old skool manx buggy though which she hates the idea of....
 
Yep it's the law to have several VW's! I've got my '68 Bay that I'm rebuilding and the wife has a '67 Bug that I've just restored. We've also got a couple of Mk1 GTI's and a T25 which I'm selling if you know anyone after one :wink:
 
I'd say at least one is the best option - then you're guaranteed that one will work! I have a '67 bug, a '64 1500s Notch and a '71 bay (almost) - must be mad! Might be selling the bug soon though cos we don't have room for them all :(

That's my bug and bus ^^ both have more than 6 months MOT in the pic -despite the bug being a pile of bits :lol:

Due to the shape of my drive I don't get many pics of them together..

It would be rude not to. Type2 and Type3, the perfect combination :wink:

Mind you sometimes they are both broken and I have to borrow the girlfriends Golf :roll:
 
I had my bug way before we bought the van which is registered in my girlfriends name so technically she has two cars (the van plus her Audi) and I only have the bug.

I keep saying that to make it fair I should be allowed to buy a Ghia as well then we would have two vehicles each but so far that just doesn't wash. :mrgreen:
