Alex_225 Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 Have to say, that Beetle is spot on. I've never been a fan of the new Beetles, in fact I'd say I dislike them BUT that one actually makes me change my opinion. Stunning! Hope you're having fun with the Lupo, looking forward to seeing that in all its glory when its finished. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver! Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 Those Speedlines are so crying out for a polished face.I was really interested when your friend was selling, but I looked into either getting them bored out to take a spiggot, or custom adaptors made up and then the cost of the polish... they would have been a mighty expensive set of wheels.Still love them though.

Guest Lauryn Posted November 16, 2008 Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 I've started to become scarily obsessed with Beetles since this, I really really want one, probably next summer or so I think I'll get one now! Nooo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
