There's no apostrophe before an 's' when you're talking about the plural version of a word. "I took some neat photo's!" is NOT correct.

I'm with callisto... I'd feel like a betrayer driving that, unless the engine is relocated to the back I don't feel I could call that a true "Buggy", but that's just me.

We pulled that photo as well on a thread discussing turning a New Beetle into a Dune Concept.

From what I gather it is an old school chassis, rear engine with a fiberglass shell and a few New Beetle parts that fit.
Think the picture was taken in Cancun or something and they rent them there.
