I have a Beetle and I love it. I turned 40 this year and for the past 4 months I have been looking for a 13 Window Deluxe Splitscreen. In the future I would be interested in the VW Buzz Bus too. Long Live Classic VWs and here's to the future !
Great Video Guys. Im from New Jersey in the US. I've had all three generations of the Beetle. 74 Super Beetle (or 1303) that I currently have, 1999 "New" Beetle GLS (sold in 2008), and 2012 Beetle. I recently sold the 2012 Beetle for a 2017 Jetta GLI. It is amazing how far automobiles have come. A fact that is brought to my attention when I go from the GLI to the 74 Beetle. However both have a way of making you smile when you drive them.
This one is d most interesting review ever among all ur other reviews.. i have enjoyed a lot.. i must say tht i am so much addicted to ur Autogefhul channel.. i have never thought of missing even a single reviews of urs.. ,, ur team is the best!! 🙂
Hey, Autogefühl Team. Absolutely loved the Beetles review! It is great to see people taking care of these great little cars. The Beetle will always, I think, have a place in the hearts of most folks. I know that, as an Ardant VW fan, I always notice them on the road, no matter which generation. Speaking of looking forward. Are we go to see a potential review of the T-Roc.....? It is revealed tomorrow!
Love that old beetle & such a distinctive engine note, also lovely that you were respective to the dear old lady. Do some more classic car reviews such as Citroën DS, GSA, CX & 2CV, Fiat 500 and Mini 😊
Autogefühl, Thomas you would be good at this, even with the negative points you always try & be positive with them. Currently own a 2015 Twingo TCe with good breaks, I borrowed a 1999 Ford Ka with no EBA or ABS & no power steering, lovely car but was a shock when stopping it, was a heart stopping moment. We are so spoilt with modern cars 😊👍
Embarking on a journey of storytelling and video experimentation. VideoGPT gracefully entered the scene, effortlessly adding a layer of professionalism to my content.
The beautiful type 1 is to die for, i think my red 2012 hardtop last gen Beetle is the greatest homage ever to a reproduction of a classic car, the interior so closely mimics a classic type 1 and the exterior pays respect as well, everybody knows i'm driving a Beetle. At nearly 70 i dote on my red Beetle in hopes to pass it on in 15 years to one of my grandchildren and then..... I will get my actual type 1😊!
I absolutely LOVE♥️♥️♥️ the Beetle! It's the ONLY car I drive, I've had four red Beetles (by the way, the matching glossy red interior details are NOT too much. LOL! 😂). My favourite model is the "New Beetle" (1998 - 2011). Unfortunately, the most recent model doesn't even look like a Beetle any more. 😥 Even more devastating for me, is that they have stopped making my beloved Beetle! 😭 🇨🇦

Really awesome video guys, as always. I really like air cooled VWs. Make me think life can be so much more simple. I'm planning on buying a 60s Kombi(or Bus) some day. Here in Brazil they are not that hard to find, but as the bettle, they are getting more expensive as they become more classic.
AUSGEZIECHNET! An excellent review, Thomas! You are the right person to be doing this. I have only ever owned VW's...also my family as well. My first VW was a 1960 Typ 1 and I have owned 5 other Typ 1's since. (Currently my second VW is a 1963 Typ 1.) All other VW's I owned were varied. Siroccos, Passats, Jettas, GLIs, GTIs and my current new car is a 2018 GTI Autobahn. Eagerly awaiting to trade the GTI in for a MK8 2022 GTI! (MK8 GTI not for sale in North America until Fall 2021.)
Many thanks Thomas for entertaining video. Enjoyed the 1972 orange cabrio Beetle 1302 from 'VW Classic Collection'. When lowered, the cabrio pram-hoods are much nicer without the cover! 26:10 - regards to Katharina.
We have a 1972 VW T2 Bay and I can assure you that the gearbox is that vague. Apparently you get used to it but I prefer to be a passenger. We've just put a deposit down on a used 2016 bug and can't wait for collection day. Both the camper and bug are red with chrome hubcap wheels!
The VW "Käfer" is a real legend 🏆😍 A very interesting Review for people like me who are way younger than the first generation of the VW "Käfer" or "beetle" XD The review shows clearly the hype of this legendary car 👍 I hope the next generation of the beetle will be *a little bit* more adult so that more customers go for this model 😅
You must be a bit over 6 ft. 😃 The backseat was just enough room ( after the engine space allowance ) to accommodate 2 children or 2 small adults. As far as the old Bug goes, people who loved the car, made it work. They adapted to the constraints. Great video !!👍 ❤the bug.
The 1984 mexican version of the beetle has 44 HP. The 34 HP version vas the 1200 cc. The mexican and brazilean beetles had a 1600 cc engine. I live in a city with high hills that modern Mazda and Kia can´t climb. Believe me, with 44 HP on the beetle you don´t need to get out the car and push it on a hill.
Is it already fall in Germany? Weather looks fair and on the chilly side. Super fab Bug/Beetle comparisons and lineage education. Ok.....I just came to see 'pump it up yo' from Thomas.
I prefer the original earlier design from the 50's. I don't care for the new beetle. I owned 2 of them. Never really liked them. I really love the latest version. I own a 2017 bottle green and I love it!
I doubt there will ever be another automobile as was Germany’s Volkswagen was for years cheap reliable if used easy does it serviced maintained properly driven we need to use them properly not abuse them don’t get me wrong I was never perfect tho I learned in life somethings easy does it more so thank you

Lol. I always joke my 2018 Beetle is my "safety Beetle". Constant beeps for warnings of things. Haha. My 2003 New Beetle is more like "whoooooooo!" and doesn't care about safety so much. So funny.
I LIVE IN, SHIT BRITAIN ,An island opposite fran,e . i love the old look mixed with the new look its so kool .MIXED OLD WITH NEW . im buying one soon and growing a funny musta,he , and round beard pointed , round glasses .i is a german now.
i want a 2012 but a realy fast one is a 20 diesel qui,k or a 14tsi better .i saw one of these in brown i swear shit poo brown .but it looked so kool ni,e realy good ..I lived in berlin in 1984 ,i use to see beetle ,onvertables for sale in every street ,600 to 900 DM bronze in ,olour ,now its 15000 20,000 euros .krazy world .
I mean vw bugs rear engine air cooled an automobile is only as safe as first made properly then come the nut operating it behind the wheel besides the safest one is parked with no motor working or broken we most have an addiction to them to go even very short distances use a cycle walk makes us all healthier saves you money how stupid going two blocks for beer cigarettes or milk bread whatever there’s more we all need to join the real quit complaining fix your own problems when possible or else donot open your mouths actions speak louder than words it is real world use your brain in the head for just more than a hat rack thank you
It was really nice to see the evolution of the Beetle, I enjoyed it. Good work.

I like to see classic cars reviews, it would be nice to se the VW Kombi from 50s here in Autogefühl.
Also a classic Porsche
I have a 2010 new beetle. Like the look of those better than 2012 up
This makes me so happy
From Malaysia, Great Review again
great to have u with us!
Maybe Volkswagen should do another re-think and continue with a Beetle EV version instead of phasing it out some time soon.

Welcome to climate change summer in Germany :D
I was a passenger with beetle 1972 as a kid in bangladesh great car
does anyone know the full name of the red beetle ??? all ik is that it was build in 2011 🥺
The newest one is kind of cool, but i'd really like an old one.
I prefer the original earlier design from the 50's. I don't care for the new beetle. I owned 2 of them. Never really liked them. I really love the latest version. I own a 2017 bottle green and I love it!
Bring back the base Beetle and let the buyer customise it, that is what made the original so compelling, to begin with... no more YUPPIE BEETLES" !!
I doubt there will ever be another automobile as was Germany’s Volkswagen was for years cheap reliable if used easy does it serviced maintained properly driven we need to use them properly not abuse them don’t get me wrong I was never perfect tho I learned in life somethings easy does it more so thank you
yoo is that the beetle gsr fastest beetle?? in the back

RIP VW Käfer 1938-2019
Miss direct steering of the original VW's! I actually learned to drive on a 1979 VW Rabbit.
I wish they would start back selling the new beetle again!! I want one so bad it’s ridiculous and they sell out so fast to where you can’t get one
A great video, but the paintwork on that nb needs to go. It's horrible.
Compare NSU TTS with Audi TTS.
The latest gen needs a flower vase!
The smell he is taking about smells like crayons
That new beetle paint,no. I own a 2014 fun car love it, my favorite if the vintage of course
Lol. I always joke my 2018 Beetle is my "safety Beetle". Constant beeps for warnings of things. Haha. My 2003 New Beetle is more like "whoooooooo!" and doesn't care about safety so much. So funny.
