Sounds a nice original Swedish import, from FBIVW.

All it needs is the front seats recovering.

Luke - put up a wanted post on VZi, Restowagen etc saying what you want and your budget etc. Some people might have the perfect Bug but not advertised it yet, or know one a friend is selling who hasn't put it online etc.

Nice one on the sale..... :)

word of advice on the old Bug, I would seriously consider one that's either just come over or can be brought over from somewhere hot and dry.

Best of luck with the search though mate

I'd love to, but it depends on its engine size (ie keeping up with the NB's!) and how reliable it is. I might try and swap my Mini with the ladies NB TDI in work for the weekend if not ;)
