2012 VW Beetle: UK prices and models revealed

2012 VW Beetle: UK prices and models revealed Perhaps the title of VW’s press release for the 2012 Beetle details for the UK best illustrates exactly what VW hope to achieve with the new Beetle: “Less Flower, More Power”.

That said, if any business builds a product without knowing its retail price they are in danger of coming unstuck. Still, we applaud Renault for managing to get UK prices for the 2011 Renault Laguna Facelift sorted in a month since the 2011 Laguna appeared at the Paris Motor Show, especially as it took VW eight months to let UK buyers know how much it wanted for the 2011 Sharan.
