- I'm interested in a better Beetle. I want McPherson strut front end for
- increased boot space, disc brakes in front, 4-bolt hubs so I can get decent
- wheels and tires, independant rear-end and preferably a flat windscreen
- (I don't like the look of the curvy one - it bulges.). 1500cc or larger
- engine is essential - was an 1800 available in the Beetle? How about fuel
- injection/electronic ignition?
-
- What model Beetle fits most or all of the above criteria?
-
- (Mine's a '66 1600 with 5-bolt hubs, drums all round and swing axle.)
