Vanessa's New Wheels

With the price of gas and the risk of commuting in a vehicle with 278,000km on the odometer, Vee recently decided to start looking for a more fuel efficient vehicle with fewer kilometres. Salvation came in the form of a New Beetle. Just like all of our VW's this one needs a few things to be "just right" for us.. I already installed a new antenna. Vanessa wants the logos changed out with chrome versions, we need to do a deep polish and waxing, and the stereo is due for a revamp with an IPOD ready version. Then there's the licence surrounds, the winter tires we'll need, but the good news is this one's got about 200,000km fewer than the last one, and it will burn 1/3 less fuel at least! Oh, and it's a VW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now I'm the only Schmuck with a hunk of American iron.

OK, here are the pics:
