I inherited the beetle from my mom. While it got me around town safely, it was not an ideal car to own. For starters it is small. My 6' 2" boyfriend struggled to fit in it comfortably. However, I was able to move out of my apartment using only the bug, thus fitting a bookcase and a twin mattress in it, but it took many trips to do so. The other major downside to this car is that it is expensive to fix and takes specific mechanics who work on foreign cars. It felt like all repairs (which I didn't even have that many) cost a lot more than they should have. My favorite thing about the car was the color, as I had bright blue, and it looked cute. I also liked the flower vase in it, but it is definitely not practical to keep fresh flowers in there all of the time. Overall, I would not buy this vehicle again.
