Not that it matters anymore, but …

I’ve had this 2014 Beetle for over 100 thousand miles now. Oil changes, tires, wiper blades, and one new battery - that’s it as far as maintenance goes. The standard 4 cyl turbo, 170hp engine provides very good performance and 30mpg. Not a lot of room but surprises with the back seat folded down you can get a lot in this thing. Shame they don’t make them anymore, it’s been excellent.

VW Beetle

We bought this car as something fun and cute. We were thinking of getting a Miata but found it too much effort to get in an out of. We saw this Beetle with racing stripes and went for it. We have never regretted our choice and after “primary” car died unexpectantly a year later the Beetle has been the workhorse, doing every task, including carrying my kayak and fishing gear to the lake for the last 97000 miles. The car has only the minimal maintenance.

More than expected.

We bought this car in Florida to be the second car in our family. We bought as a backup for emergencies. The choice was made because it looked cute and we thought it would be fun. A year after we bought it we moved to Maine in 2015. A few months after we settle in our Subaru had a major engine problem and basically died. We never replaced it. We have relied on the Beetle alone ever since and it has never let us down. With the back seats folded it can carry an amazing amount of stuff including my kayak. It has required the bare minimum of service; oil, tires, wiper blades have been about all. It’s reasonably comfortable, quite, handles well, turns in a small circle, it’s as fast as you’d like with 170hp, and it’s overall gas mileage is about 35 mpg. And to top it off, we are constantly getting remarks from strangers about how good it looks.

My Volky R-Line / Silver

It makes me happy! I wanted a manual that was fast, with fat tires with a sunroof. I got so much more when it arrived at the dealer. I will have this car forever! It also makes people smile... I think THAT is my favorite... well, aside from the occasional Punch Buggie No Punch Back sightings.

2014 Beetle, base model auto trans

This car is underrated. It is not a great family car, what 2 door is, but it has been perfect for my wife and I. The car has great performance, looks terrific, can get an amazing amount of stuff in the back with the seats folded, and the only maintenance during six years of ownership has been oil changes and tires. It will be sad day when I’m forced to part this car.

Surprisingly nice

My 2014 Beetle was purchased to be a second car for weekend fun as opposed to the everyday functional driver of the first car. However, the first car met its demise several years ago and the Beetle has filled in admirably since. Mine is silver with dual black racing stripes and retro wheel treatment but otherwise completely stock base model. It’s gets a LOT of compliments on its looks which is nice, but the car is also surprisingly quick considering the base 4 cal engine. It is also a good hauler with the back seats folded down. In addition, it has a pretty comfy ride and gets around 30 mpg. The only work it has needed is oil changes and just recently had its 50000 mile service. If they were still making these after 2019 I would consider another in the future.

VW beetles are

I love it. Had VW when in my 20’s. Loved it then and continue to love it. I don’t care for the VW dealer in Springfield but love the car! I just heard they are not making them for awhile. Creating anxious buyers???

Better than expected

2014 VW Beetle 1.8t bought new in Florida. This was bought to be a second car with a Subaru Forester as the primary. It was bought for the unique looks as a fun car. After moving to Maine in 2015 the Forester died and the Beetle has been the primary car since. It has filled in remarkedly well with the only service needed being oil, tires and wipers so far. The performance is not particularly sporty but there is plenty of power (170hp) from the standard engine. The front seats are comfortable the back seats cramped but they fold down and with the rear hatch opening quite a bit more than expected can fit in the trunk. Also, better than 30mpg all the time. I would buy another if they were still making this model..

2014 Beetle Coupe

We bought this as a second car, not our primary ride (a Subaru Forester). As such, it was to be a primarily a “fun” car. We bought it for the iconic look. It is silver with black racing stripes and retro wheels that look like baby moons with chrome trim rings. The car seldom fails to get compliments on its appearance from bystanders when we park it. With all that said, the Subaru has been gone for 2 years now and this has become the primary ride by default. Other than being small, I have no complaints. The car is comfortable, has plenty of power with its standard 1.8 turbo engine and 6speed auto, and other than oil changes every 10k miles and new wiper blades has no other maintenance. We live in Maine and the car handles the weather with no problems, I swap out the tires to the winter variety 6 months a year. The back seat folds down and the trunk opens wide to accommodate an amazing amount of stuff in the trunk. This was the base model so the racing stripes and auto transmission were the only options.
