That's what it's all about and why I keep my beetle looking standard. All the work goes on under the skin.

This could be copied right into the 'What's GermanLook all about' thread

Thanks for the kind words everyone.

Oh and hi Jak, fancy bumping into you here. Jak's got some good stories. In fact, nobody in his neighbourhood will race his beetle at the traffic lights. He's embarrassed quite a fewbig V8 engined Aussie cars. You'd better save that for another post because we don't want to hijack Jimby's post.
