The new one (first generation)is essentially a Golf IV, so it’s at least a functional vehicle. Those are almost old enough to have a historic license plate in Germany.
Yeah, I wouldn’t say “new”. I remember as a kid, Mandy Moore had one in a music video and was too young to hold a license so the driving was all faked.
Maybe it was the one I drove - I found myself pushing the steering wheel in a bid to get up a relatively modest incline. I was also quite alarmed by how quickly things were passing me.
The original? An absolute classic to look at and horrible to drive. The new one? Looks like the original was stung by bees and forgot it’s EpiPen

She’s 40 now.
Edit: Sorry for that, everyone.
Over here it’s indeed called the “New Beetle”, I wasn’t saying you were wrong. Merely pointing out that time flies by for those who are getting old.
what do you mean, classic beetles are a blast to drive

Then again, my daily at the time was an RX-8.
thats quite a point of comparison
beetles are fun but arent that powerful, and its an old car so you need to be on top of maintenance.
