Read the 61-65 Bentley cover-to-cover when I was 11.
Bought my first Beetle in 1998 when I was 12.
Owned three of them before I turned 13. :oops:

I learned to drive, at 14, in my dad's '68 squareback. That was in 1980. I didn't get my first VW 'til I was 25. I've owned a few since then and I'm 42. Peace!

1984, i was 16- when my mom drug home a co-workers 1960 bug for my first car... :roll: of course she didn't bother to ask me if that's what i wanted (considering i was looking at an old ford ranchero) - and STILL made me pay for it.

:roll:

i've had a few since and still blame her.

I got my first bug in 1964 when I was 21 years old.
I have probably owned a couple hundred since then.
I own 11 of them right now.
