The only new small car that's better than the Volkswagen. It has a trunk that carries twice as much as any Beetle ever. It has a completely new suspension system for a softer ride. The front track is wider for better handling. The brakes are bigger for quicker stops. It has a longer wheelbase than the Beetle. Yet it has a shorter turning radius for easier parking. All in all, it's 89 ways better than the Beetle of old. Thereby making it the only new small car this year that stands any chance of replacing the Volkswagen. And if you think about it, that shouldn't come as any great surprise. Because this year, of all years, if anyone was going to build a new small car to be better than the Volkswagen, you knew who it would be. The Super Beetle. a Don Taylor Motors Ltd. MAIN ST.
