Couldn't agree with you less. My first two cars were VW bugs and they were a great car to learn on. Bought both of them with issues, one needed a new transmission, the other a complete engine rebuild. Also some body repairs and paint job. Fixed them both up, sold one to pay for the other and drove it for several years after that. Actually still have it sitting in the shed. Yes, they required a lot of dinging to keep them up but a piece of crap they were not.
