On a beautiful sunny day, I took the old "girl" for a ride.
She’s a 1973 1300 VW Beetle with 81th KM or 50,000 miles on the clock.
I only drive on sunny days and owned it since 1998. Not many left on the road even in Germany!
Excellent Beetle and you have really taken good care of her she looks show room condition,
Remember this fine auto and always enjoyed seeing them or riding in one.
Nice sharp shot Tom Le Roy you have a collectors auto with high value today.

I remember when they were everywhere and I miss seeing them; they are as scarce as hen's teeth here! Good to know you still maintain this beauty. Excellent shot of her. V
I remember ride-sharing to university back in early '70s in a Beetle which had no fuel gauge. The driver had to remember to check the fuel level by inserting a dipstick (and once or twice, she forgot...)
This beautiful and iconic old girl has been cared for with love. She seems in immaculate condition for her age and is a treasure to own. I also had one once for many years but we parted company. How nice that you enjoy taking your girlfriend out for a drive on pleasant days, Tom. Superb autumn image too, of course. V
