Written by Malcolm Bobbitt - whose companion Volkswagen titles cover the Karmann Ghia coupe and convertible, and possibly the greatest classic of all time, the VW Bus - this new edition of Volkswagen Beetle Cabriolet chronicles the history of this practical and sought after convertible Beetles from the classic era. The author traces the Beetle Cabrio's ancestry from its pre-war origins, following its development through to 1980, by which time more than 330,000 examples had been built, and up to the present day, when the New Beetle cabriolet continues to be in strong demand worldwide. As VW's engineering quality has ensured a very high survival rate, this book is also a guide to Beetle Cabrio ownership, providing buying advice, specifications, and information on customising. Includes a chapter devoted to the New Beetle.
