I LOVE THIS CAR I HAVE HAD IT FOR 5 YEARS AND PEOPLE STILL COMMENT ON IT. ITS A PERFECT CAR FOR A NEW DRIVER AND IS A VERY STYLISH CAR. ITS BEEN VERY RELIABLE. WOULD RECOMMEND THIS CAR TO WHO EVER CAN GET THERE HANDS ON ONE.
THERE BRIGHT COLOURS AND QUIRKYNESS IDEAL FOR A CITY GIRL AND IS A REALLY NIPPY CAR FOR ROUND TOWN OR MOTORWAY DRIVING.
NOTHING LOVED IT AN EVEN WHEN I GET ANOTHER CAR WILL ALWAYS MISS IT. THEY STAND OUT WHICH MOST CARS DONT BECAUSE THE ALL LOOK THE SAME!

The 1.6 Beetle is nippy, surprisingly practical, cheap to run and above all else looks super cool!
From the outside the Beetle is stylish and slicker than the original model with all the nods to the former still evident. Little features like electric petrol cap and hidden boot handle just add to the design.
Inside the car is much roomier than you would expect! Even for back seat passengers...my partner is 6'3'' and is comfortable (as long as the person sat in front isn't same height). The large dashboard was unnerving at first but actually allows for brilliant vision out of the windscreem. Of course the flower on the dashboard adds that certain feminine charm!
The car is relatively easy going on petrol and oil and drives well long distance and short journeys. Very comfortable driving experience. Airbags etc as standard, child seat lock system.
- Sunglasses holder instead of ceiling handle for driver.
- Small storage space near internal light/ rear view mirror - perfect for tapes, ipod etc!
- Plenty of cup holders
- The fabulous dashboard flower!
- Electric petrol cap lid, opens from inside. Electric boot open from inside car.
- The car does rev past 3000rpm even at 65mph so could probably do with 6 gears!
- Parking sensors as standard would be fabulous although you do get used to the unusual exterior shape

Great car. Very comfortable. More space than you'd think. I can get two child seats in the back and there is room for the buggy and a load of shopping in the boot. It's quick to pull away. A good sturdy, reliable, fun, well made car.
Air con. I love the boot badge, it hides the handle to open the boot. The Flower Vase is a nice quirky extra that really suits the Beetle!
The car's MPG is quite low, it would be an improvement if it were more economical. Built in child seats, like some of the A-class Mercedes would be a real advantage!
There are many practical reasons to leasing a car rather than buying one. Car leasing offers lower monthly payments, lower initial deposit, road tax and breakdown recovery. You also have the opportunity to drive a new car every two or three years and all vehicles include the standard manufacturer’s warranty.
Our leasing deals are powered by Nationwide Vehicle Contracts.
