Did your bug also get the windshield fluid pressure from the spare tire. You had to hook a tube up to the spare tire.


I had one those while stationed at RAF Lakenheath in the UK! I had to remember to refill the spare everytime I refueled!

The passenger’s side was on the right and the door latch wasn’t very strong. I nearly lost my girlfriend (eventually became my exwife) on a sharp turn.

Lol. The German engineers probably discovered it during the final test drive right before full-on production and thought — “hey, we’ll just hook it up to the spare tire.”

Hey, isn’t kludge a German word?

Your ex-wife? Maybe it was an omen. ;)
