I found this article recently, it's a Motor Sport magazine feature from 1971. A V8 Mk4 Zodiac conversion.

It is indeed from a 1966 CAR road test. Our own Trigger has posted the whole thing on Flickr :

In that case I might well have the original in my parent's loft. I'm down there in a couple of weeks I'll try to collect the old mags if I can, must be about 15years worth from Smoll car & mini owner in the 60s up till Car in the 70s

1200 Beetle, original was a 1500 - that's an Anglia estate too, not a Herald!

 

I reckon the one in the VW Museum is fake too, the story of how it got there is too good to be true...

Number plate on the j van is wrong, while we're at it. I think it was just a very quick attempt at making it look vaguely like the original. What's the latest on the Beetle?

 

This photo was taken prior to the band's photo shoot.

I think someone should pop to Wolfsburg and see if the chassis number on the original logbook https://www.the-saleroom.com/en-gb/auction-catalogues/mullocks-specialist-auctioneers-and-valuers/catalogue-id-2823863/lot-12528615 matches the one in the museum. Betting it doesn't...

 

Anyway as you were, here's a shite Beetle
