Welcome to our home page
 
This site is run for the owners of the GT beetle
 
I recently purchased a GT beetle and then found that the owners site was no more. I have now decided to try and set up a new site and am looking for any help or information that you would like me to post. I will be constructing this site over the comming months.
 
 Please visit the gt register page to register your car.  

The GT Beetle was released in the UK in 1973 with 2500 being imported (to celebrate 300,000 imports into the UK). It was based on the 1300 base model but came with a number of extras. It retailed at £997 (The 1300 was £978)

The GT came in three colours:

Tomato Red (30M) About 40% of the cars

Lemon Yellow (15M) About 50% of the cars

Apple Green (46M) About 10% of the cars
