Ownership Verified: My Hot Latino - '16 Beetle Cabrio

[gt1750]

Wow, what a road trip! You put 1,5x more kms on your Käfer on the trip than I did on my 156 over one whole year! Also cool photos

 

[Galantti]

Seems as if people like the region - have some pictures!

something something pineapple in the middle of the road not giving a fuck....

 

[DanRoM]

Fuck this. I need to go to Norway....

Continuing the apparently evolving tradition of my siblings getting married in my cars

Half a year later, all is well

Just rolled over 50Mm, recently noticed two things about the connected part of the infotainment:
Good: they changed the rain map from "three hours of past radar images" to "the most recent radar image and three hours of rain forecast"
Bad: When you delete a destination from the web portal it's only deleted in the portal, not in the satnav... wouldn't be a big issue if the satnav didn't some day deny importing new destinations from the web because it was "full", and wouldn't be a big issue if you could bulk-delete out-of-date imports... however, you have to manually delete them one by one ...last year's Norway trip alone was 100+ waypoints...

Just returned from an epic five week 9000km trip

Somewhat rocky start, heard clinking noises under load changes... as it turned out after a while of poking around and finally removing the massive Unterfahrschutz, that silver clip holding the cable in place was loose

Fancy parking in the Hockenheim Paddock Club lot

Some free new rubber during the free second service at 61000km

Who are all these people and why did they all park like an idiot?

Stuck in 'Ring traffic :/

Home sweet home!

Five more Beetle days to go, then it's end of lease

 

[DanRoM]

You gave it an epic goodbye, though!

 

[narf]

Indeed... I forgot to add, apparently the Beetle made the best noise at Ringmeet

 

[Mitchi]

Wondering what the replacement is gonna look like.

 

[narf]

I did already get to touch the actual car a month ago showed a few Ringmeeters too.

Sucessfully removed excess stickers... the Beetle ones were smooth sailing, the F1 one turned bitchy and again needed @nicjasno's special sauce

I'd call that successful I'm leaving the three vignettes and the Feinstaub sticker for VW...

More Teasers?

 

[CraigB]

That is a Dodge Challenger for sure...

 

[thomas]

I'm seeing a Z4. If that's the case, I approve very much!

 

[narf]

Milestone!

 

[prizrak]

Def not a Z4 or a Challenger, looks asian to me, maybe the Hyundai N?

God damn, you like to make it tough

Is that... is that another beetle in the same colour? Did you lease one right before the end of production? Either that or you bought a Chevy HHR.

Edit: Ah god damn, I should let the page load fully before replying. Nice BMW!

The supply of German Beetles stopped last year, so it's not a VW. The ones made this year until the beginning of the summer aren't coming here.

@prizrak no convertible Ns
