D2Beetle '98 Yellow GLS New Beetle
Well here are the first pics of my 1998 GLS NB.
When I first started this thread nearly four years ago I had 220,448 miles, now as of 06/16/2010 I have this many... I chose to keep everything stock, and it seems customary to give your NB a name; mine did not have a name until this day... I have just as much fun today as I did the day I drove it off the car lot.

WOW! At the mileage!!! That's more than our 1991 Toyota PU (190K). Smiley's looking sharp as a tack for being 8 years old!!!

Your bug looks great! You'd never know it had that many miles by looking at it.

My kids say I got it from the computer game Diablo II; actually "D" is my middle initial and the "2" is because I'm a junior; translated it means Dee Juniors Beetle. I needed to create a login name and its hard to come up with a unique one; so I just added D2 to Beetle and it worked; been using it every since!! I am in Springfield, used to live in Bowling Green; the wife and I occasionally go back to BG for weekend lunches or dinners, as we have friends there we stay in contact with. Where about in western KY are you from? Last edited by D2Beetle; 05-07-2010 at 02:46 PM..

TOD Update; I have yet to take this NB to TOD; someday I'll get the A/C and Blend Door issue fixed, but I did get some TOD stickers for it and I got new flowers, as the old ones were the originals from when I bought it in '98.
And my mileage update... I have put 47,329 miles since my join date nearly four years ago.

Thanks, as soon as the water usage ban is lifted I'll be detailing it and posting those updated pics. The only thing that has changed is the drivers seat; aside from that there is no change from the pics original posted nearly four years ago.
