Amazing. Well and truly amazing. Congratulations Dutch. It's so refreshing to see cars having this level of detail built. The pasty faced pomes over there are going to be real surprised to see such a wicked South African built Beetle! It's truly world class. Hope you have many happy miles of smiles :D
