Spunky
I've had a beetle now for about 18 months and have loved every minute of it.
First I'll start with the looks - just to get them out the way. It's just one of, if not the charismatic cars on the road. Nothing else comes close to being as fun and happy and head turning (apart from the sports cars etc etc).

The inside is massive! Loads of room. the dashboard is big enough to get a troupe of can-can dancers performing a routine but it puts you nice and in the middle of that massive headroom. Space in the back is not too bad at all. 6 footers will bang their heads but women and golf clubs are not a problem.

Now the performance. This thing accelerates nicely, not too fast, but once it reaches 70 if you put your foot down you just go. It's great at the top end.

I love this car, really I do and will be sad to let it go. I really need to get something bigger which is the only reason I would get rid of it.
