Beetle Rally Beautifies Bangalore Roads
It seems like the bugs came swarming into the streets of Bangalore on January 20, 2008. The sight was a beauty to behold. The Volkswagen Beetle car rally was the main attraction. The ‘Herbie’ car rally was the first of its kind in the country.

Fifteen vintage Beetle cars went across the busy roads of the city like a royal procession decked up in bright, newly painted colors carrying the Volkswagen flag on their front. Beetle reminds me of a lost world charm. I was overjoyed on seeing the rally in Bangalore. It came as a surprise when 15 cars rolled beside my 800 on MG road. They looked more majestic and elegant than any other small car I have set my eyes on.

I hope this car rally has inspired many more car lovers to participate in such vintage car rallies.

The Beetle Club
Beetle, the heritage car from the house of Volkswagen, still carries its pride in India. A group of ‘Beetle’ lovers from Bangalore officially formed Beetle Club in the city. They have also organized and participated in the Beetle rallies as well as other vintage car rallies. This ‘hot hutch’ has a prolific history that created more wows among the Indian car enthusiasts.

Beetle, popularly known as ‘Bug’ to the motor world, was manufactured by German automakers that ruled the roads during 20s. It’s believed that Adolf Hitler asked one of the maestros to design a car that could seat two adults and two children giving 100km/hr. And after World War II, Volkswagen Beetle evolved as a car winning millions of hearts.

The ‘Bug’ smitten car lovers hopefully set an example for the other car freaks to form such clubs to rejoice their glory in the pages of history. May be this club could be the entry pass for the upcoming Volkswagens in India.
