  • The mileage speedometer has been replaced by a mileage speedometer (so kilometers and not miles are counted), but the mileage has not been changed by the installed mileage speedometer, which means that the mileage according to the speedometer probably does not match the engine mileage.

Model history

The Beetle reaches its final stage of development in the 1303 model - apart from a clamping strip for the hood seal, not a single screw or sheet metal corresponds to the first Beetle. In the course of its history, the Cabriolet was always adapted to the development of the saloon: All changes to the technology and bodywork are also found in the Cabriolet; on the engine side, the most powerful performance level is regularly used.
