My First VW
Since my last post involved my new car, a 2010 Volkswagen Passat Wagon, it got me thinking about my car history. The new Passat is my 3rd VW, having had a 1998 Ginster Yellow Golf GTI and a 2005 Indigo Blue Golf TDI before it. BUT! Walking into my office, it occurred to me that I’ve actually had *4* VWs, the one pictured here being my first. In fact, my mom tells me this the very first toy car I played with growing up. It’s a Tonka VW Beetle from who knows when, probably from the late 70s when I was born or the early 80s. It has more dents & dings than my 32 (soon to be 33) years, but it’s still going strong. Happy little Beetle! Guess I’m a VW guy at heart.
