Die Käfer-Legende - Von tollen Käfern und Erfolgswagen
From Ferdinand Porsche's dream to a reality built over 20 million times on all roads around the world, from a National Socialist propaganda coup to a metal symbol of the democratic Federal Republic.
In this illustrated chronicle, Alexander F. Storz describes the period from the first prototype designs in the 1930s through the various further developments after the war to the last Beetle models that left the factory halls in Mexico in 2003. Illustrated with private photos, he also revives the period colour of those decades in Germany.

Die Käfer-Legende - Von tollen Käfern und Erfolgswagen
The VW Beetle is a motor legend that has sold over 20 million units worldwide. Robust and reliable, suitable for everything and not afraid of anything, the Beetle became a symbol of the German economic miracle - and a vehicle whose success is unique in automotive history. This car, according to VW General Nordhoff, "had more faults than a dog has fleas". The rear-engined pretzel Beetles built between 1933 and 1953 are still extremely popular today. This Schrader Typen Chronik volume is a monument to the early generations of Beetles.
