Why A Classic VW Beetle Makes For A Great First Car – SlashGear

New cars are brimming with more gadgets and gizmos than ever before. However, the ascension of software-defined vehicles has a caveat: fixing them can be out of reach for typical car owners, much less your neighborhood mechanic. You won’t need to mess with OBD2 scanners and complicated electronics in a VW Bug. 

The basic air-cooled engine design makes it ideal for novice drivers to fix or maintain, and it only takes 20 minutes on average for skilled technicians to take out the Beetle’s pancake engine from its rear-mounted cradle. Furthermore, modifying the Beetle for more power and improved handling is possible with a handful of bolt-on aftermarket parts.

It’s why classic vehicles like the VW Beetle grew popular during the post-war era, and it’s also why younger buyers are looking to the Beetle for a first car that won’t break the bank. They’re simple to understand, are exempted from road tax (in the U.K., at least), and are cheaper to insure. 

The bottom line is you stand a chance of spending less money keeping a classic VW Beetle on the road given a modicum of care and maintenance.
