1973 VW Beetle 1200 (standard) FFW 805L. Powder blue with no extra's at all. Total vinyl interior and rubber floor covering which was good as the Lee Challenger crossplies it was on meant bugger all grip, so after you'd pee'd yourself negotiating a roundabout at 5 mph, you could hose it out . Also discovered it had concrete in the heater/sill channels whilst trying to work out why the heater didn't work. Probably long dead now but bizarrely I spotted another Beetle (looked like a 1300/1500) registered 2 digits off (FFW 803L) in Barnsley a couple of months ago. I do NOT really miss that car, it was crap but it taught me loads about oversteer.
