New Bug
A really fun vehicle to drive. Front seats are very comfortable with plenty of leg room-rear seats are not meant for adults.

luv bug
this is my third vw new beetle and first convertible! i absolutely love it. it's also first ever automatic transmission but with the Tiptronic shifting i feel i'm still in control on curves~ total blast to drive as were previous new beetles. only difference is, the flower doesn't stay it the vase for long with the top down at speeds over 10mph!
New Bug
It is a fun drive, and I fit at 6' 2", the TDI smoked a little at first, but after it was broken in, and using Biodiesel it now does great. Going from a Land Rover to a VW TDI is very nice on the pocket. Only thing that bugs me a little is the outside mirrors defrost is in the center position of the mirror adjustment switch, this is taking some getting use to, hope I don't burn them out before I figure it out, a light would be nice.
My Baby
I'm in my sixties and have had a lot of cars, but in the few days having the Bug, it gives me a younger feeling. This car has the pickup, great gas mileage, and is built better then my husband's new suv (another mfg). The dealership was great and they were very concerned that I knew everything about the car before driving off, this I understand is a policy of VW. Thanks VW for a great car.
