diecast and pre-painted, ready to display material: metal scale: 1/76 size: 5.4*2*1.9 cm The Volkswagen Beetle—officially the Volkswagen Type 1, is an economy car that was built by the German company Volkswagen (VW) from 1938 until 2003.

Members of the National Socialist party, with an additional dues surcharge, were promised the first production, but the Spanish Civil War shifted most production resources to military vehicles to support the Nationalists under Francisco Franco. Lead engineer Ferdinand Porsche and his team took until 1938 to finalise the design. Béla Ba
