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. |
My mate had one of them. The heat exchange had gone sending fumes through the car. The heater takes its heat from the exhaust system, we arrived everywhere strangely giggly.
