The factory site, requisitioned from German nobility, was used during World War Two to make unlikely military variations on the Beetle chassis. After the war, the factory in ruins, the Beetle was dismissed as unworthy of further attention. Within ten years, cars were being built at the rate of one a minute, 365 days a year. They were sold all over the world and an army of devoted drivers was established. This book is an affectionate account of the Beetle’s chequered history, describing the various modifications that contributed to the evolution of one of the world’s most popular cars (it overtook the Model T Ford as the world’s best seller)..
