Aircooled VW South Africa

They watercooled, front engined and have aircon! they dont count!!!!!

try explaining that to your seat cover who beats you 5 times for a "new" punch buggy

Any other people agree?

My seatcover dont even have to see a beetle before giving me a slap, she just hands them out.

But yes agreed, they dont count, and dont go to any event with loads of AC's , the punches are never ending

The old and new cars share a childlike appeal. The re-creation of the old car's shape in the New Beetle brought with it the revival of a 1960s children's game. "Punch buggy" was one of those pieces of children's folklore, a game that called for a child who spotted and "called" a Beetle to strike another, exempt from retaliation. "Buggy" suggests either a horse-drawn vehicle or a ba's pram and even adults often colloquially refer to both old and new Beetles as "punch buggies."

Got smacked tons tonight guess i shouldn't have poked her stomach and then told the waiter that "yes, she will take the sprite zero instaed of the lemonade" for a start

AC events are fine, beats my brothers instead, give me a break for a while



I know its revived Pine, but they not beetle (cool article none the less). and Mini's aren't mini any more. Punch buggy should only work for beetles, Baja's and buggies. new Beetles are golfs in a pretty frock and there is no Punch golfie game

I also get hit for NEW punch buggies....it's unfair and do not count...I AGREE

LOL!

My (teenage) kids still love to play this game. Our family rules are only real beetles count (NO waterbugs!!!), and there is a blanket amnesty at all ACVW and old car shows.
