we have been pretty hand tights for many many days and night

Käfer (in German aka "beetle") designed by Ferdinand Porsche
champion of all champion
with the record of longest-running and most-manufactured car of a single design platform, worldwide.
The People's Car"
In 1931, Ferdinand Porsche developed the Porsche Type 12, or "Auto für Jedermann" (car for everybody) for Zündapp
Volkswagen (aka, "people's car" in German)
the Beetle was more comfortable and powerful than most European small cars, having been designed for sustained high speed on the Autobahn, being the top seller in US
The engine must be powerful enough for rapid sustained cruising on Germany’s new Autobahnen
some adds on
Everything must be designed to ensure worn out parts could be quickly and inexpensively exchanged. The engine must be air-cooled because, as Hitler explained, not every country doctor had his own garage
"The engine fires up immediately without a choke. It has tolerable road-handling and is economical to maintain. Although a small car, the engine has great elasticity and gave the feeling of better output than its small nominal size."
gore by Zoro sword???
the owner had the choice between buying a Porsche or rebuilding his 3rd beetle.....and many of the parts imported in from US, his children loves this than a Porsche .....as it might not fit them in.....
