Oval Obsession
It's the one you've been waiting to read about – Steve Kay's excellent 1953-based custom Beetle
VolksWorld Show
Esher in Surrey goes Volkswagen crazy one weekend every year, thanks to our show at Sandown Park exhibition centre
Top Of The Class
Take one beat-up Karmann Ghia, a thousand hours and one dedicated owner called Jason Walston and what do you end up with? A VW that not only looks stunning but also wins best in its class on its first outing
Do You Copy
For some, building a replica offers an opportunity to own a version of a car that they would never otherwise have thought possible; for others it represents a vehicle for their engineering talent
Original Thinking
Some people predicted that VW Hot Rods would be a flash-in-the-pan, but they're proving to be anything but, as Frenchman Patrice Gangnant's entirely home-built version shows
The Green Mile
Belgian prison warder Eric Malevez has created a Beetle that captures the imagination – it could be his get-out-of-jail-free card
House Arrest
It looks like an old school prisoner transporter and looks like it might dissolve in the next heavy downpour, but rest assured there will not be any convicts peering out of the windows, not will it be washed away anytime soon
