incredible beetle crash commercial!

http://www.painteddesigns.nl
This spectacular footage can hardly be considered a commercial. It is more a vw documentary telling us how much punishment a beetle can take.

These days it's just unbearable to see a priceless split window beetle being tested in this way!

From the DVD 'Legend on wheels'. Wanna have this DVD packed with 2 hours of high quality digitally remastered old vw commercials? The DVD really brings you back to the '60s and '70s. Send an email to: beetlejuice150@hotmail.com

Try it now with a New Beetle! Hahahahahahahaha

[MacNerfer]

@sewphie They're not as safe as new cars, by any means (ABS, air bags, crumple zones, etc.) For the time they were good. Some even have 3-point seat belts (shoulder strap), the type 3's have this. Padded dashes are standard in the later cars, like the 70's super beetle. 

But any 30-40 year old car will require regular maintenance & repair. If you want a cheap, reliable car, get something like a 6-year Nissan Sentra, which would have similar gas costs and cost about the same upfront.

@sewphie

68 and newer are pretty safe bugs. you can get hurt in newer cars. Its just don't take chances at intersctions and watch other drivers

[swimmerB0B]

its all about driving skill; being a 'careful driver' is not enough for an inexperienced driver behind the wheel of a rear-engine micro car that is being driven daily in traffic (i.e. with idiots driving big cars). one simply can't be careful for other motorists...the newer driver should have a bit more power and a lot more built-in safety in his or her ride. spend some money to protect your bod.

''Why drive the car backwards?''

''Than jou diden't see the cable to the bumper! drag the cable car!''

I have a 67 bug and I wouldn't drive anything else ever in my life I'm a single mom with two boys it's very cheap maintenance and in this economy twenty bucks gives me a full tank I totaly recommend :)

[sewphie]

So are these cars safe? I have been looking into buying one of these for a while (because they are very affordable and they have lots of charm) but i would be using it for everyday use (not just here and there)-- I would also be using it to drive home from college (2-4 times per school year) next year which is about a 400 mile trip one way-- Would you say this is a safe car for a young person who is a careful driver and do these cars have seat belts?

@Torpedo1100

I was driving my beetle around one day when I noticed a man on the side of the road, I asked him if he was okay and we got chatting. It turns out he was an old desert rat. Aafter the war he returned to Africa to teach children to read. He said that he used VW beetles and camper vans to get around because they were so reliable, didn't overheat and didn't require water, which was obviously scarse. He said they were "bomb-proof" which is quite a claim from a tank crewman!
