So far had a Beetle (I miss it every day) and 2 Kombis (well 1 + 1 Donor car) On the "Someday" list is the following Another Beetle Dual Cab Lowlight ute, Manx Buggy, 356 Speedster Type 3 Wagon And a shiny new VW Amarok!
9 Kombis so far at the age of 16. And yes I pay for them with my earnt money. Please don't make me put up pics
hey guys thats cool, but this is not what you have or want but what the ideal list of must own or how many different vdubs are there to own?
iconic Iconic examples of each type -type 1 - split beetle or early convertible type 2 - 23 window (apologies to 21 owners) type 3 - type 3 ghia type 4- any would do (could insert any porsche as an alternative)

This was one time This was another time... Right now we have the 62 split, the 75 bay, the 89 T3 and the 77 golf.
As far as bays go, I'd like to see my BC, my '76 Trakka camper and Saphir, my '76 sooobi powered Microbus back on the road, then maybe add a lowlight panel and an SC of any description to the collection and I'd be happy. I'd be happy with just one splitty, not fussed about the year... tho I actually prefer the post '64 big window ones truth be told. I also one day intend to own a roundlight watercooled T3 bus, and would love to one day come into posession of a T3 Syncro... if the opportunity ever came up to import a roundlight one without sending myself to the poorhouse I'd be over the moon. A DC T3 would be nice too... tho there were only about 200 or so brought into the country so good luck with that. And non-Kombiwise, not overly fussed, however an early Type 3 square would be nice... of and I'd give my left testicle for a Type 3 Karmann Ghia.... Oh and a Mk1 Golf GTI would be epic...
A 56 Oval & a 59 Split.....(also have a 61 ratty splitty "Shamrock") In my retirement I am buying a 356 Outlaw
