http://www.redbuggy.com is the web site of a guy named Tom who travelled from Sweden to Cape Town in an open red Beach buggy. He is as Thumper says - one armed and he travelled with Yoshiko, a Japanese seatcover. The whole trip was recorded on camera and Tom hoped to produce a movie of there trip in the states but up to now has had no offers. He is now in Zambia contemplating his future.

Chris you are thinking of "NERDS" ON WHEELS or something to that effect that do IT stuff. One of our Wildbuggers worked for them a while back. And yes they all drive red beetles

Hi All.
My name is Michael, I live in Cape Town.
I'm a member and webmaster of Phenomenal Bugz. All I can really tell you is that I have a Big love for the VW Beetle... like the rest of you. I hope to learn lots from the oldtimers on the forum and to share stories and pics.

Glad to meet you all :)

Welcome Michael.

There is some awsome Bugs in your club,but I like the silver and red Bus the most.

You guys also look like a bunch of nutters.

I was thinking to organise a meet in early Jan.
