The M-04L Beetle is a fine-looking model, but not the easiest to drive. After a brief and frustrating race career, this one was retired and its innards stripped out to put in a M-03 which went on to be far more successful on the track. It then languished in a cupboard for a while, after which it re-entered service with a few modifications, becoming a M-sized stadium truck. In this form it works really well and is a lot of fun to drive. However chassis parts are becoming more expensive now, so it is probably time for it to start taking things easy. To this end it has gone back to its VW roots as it were, not as a Beetle this time, but as its classier sibling the Karmann Ghia.

Thanks! I rather think the M-06 would be just as good if not better in a similar configuration.
