My car today, a yellow bug. It was the first car I got to drive exclusively although it was my parent’s car. A 1967 yellow bug. I was so excited to get my license! I was going to be a driver. Then I found out what that meant to my parents. I was now my sisters chauffeur. (will you take you sister to the doctor, will you run to the store, will you will you will you).
at first, I jumped at the chance to drive.
Then I realized i was simply a labor resource.

The infamous old love bug. i’m smiling to myself cos this image is poetic as it stands.
i wanted to paint it white and add 52 to the hood. I loved those movies!
This is where the model calls him “soap opera”. But I don’t know why. I like the color too. When I was a young mother before I got my license, I had to drive the kids to kindergarten by bus. It was torture, especially winter. Then my parents gave me my first car. It was Moskvich 412 1500 SL. I was very grateful to them for this talk that made my daily routine easier.
it made their daily routine easier to, however. you became their transport system!
When I was in high school, I usually used public transportation to go home from school, but some familiar school friends who were members of the VW club (at that time the VW Beetle and Comby were collecting trends) at school often took me home or went around first, so I was quite enjoying some of these bugs in various variations, modifications, and colors, of course, the yellow ones like that too but maybe in different series and production year.
Yes! You managed to take me away to good times in high school, Doc!
i loved my bug! we once (accidentally) proved that it could float!
I love that yellow bug. I always liked that look of Volkswagens. You might have fun looking at the collection of bugs I have on Pinterest.

i love your collection (you gained a new follower). I love the black and white/yin yang bug!!!
your parents’ had ulterior motives. they bought you a car so you would be their family employee, but it also gave you driving experience, which you probably needed at that age….
eventually i got a job and ended up not being able to drive my sisters as much!
your job saved you and gave you even more independence.
i became more independent when I moved to college.
i did the same thing – i moved back to my parents house (my dad was a professor) for my student teaching semester but then right back out again!
oh yeah, i moved out when I was 18
I love the yellowvolks wagon
i think that was the car everyone wanted, for a very short time.
i love that car stilL!
I know this car well. It was very popular in our country.
they just ended production in Mexico in 2019. They were produced for many years.
These are some fantastic views!
i adore those time-lapses they are amazing!
Cute yellow bug. I never had one but rode in many. Sharing the smiles.
that is the goal- share the smiles!
Trying to do the same. 🙂
we are on a common course! help people smile again!
I love the car shown here. I love small cars. Great fun post my brother. You
i miss my bug! that thing ran (200,000 miles) and then I got my own first car! Thanks sis!
I really enjoy your fun post .
thanks! trying to keep things light here on Virily!!!
That was funny. Knowing how to drive turned you into a chauffeur and to get things on stores.
i didn’t see it that way, when I was 16 🙂
Ah, theres Herbie! She just needs a splash of white and some cool stripes. Your first car as well. Interesting. I was lucky. I was the BABY. My sisters were the chauffeurs. And yes, I remember them complaining about it. Now to go watch those time lapses. I love them too, so fascinating. The flower was super cool.
i took them everywhere – oh course the baby of our family, was going with me anyway. I think she thought she was the big sister!
