This one-day event in Austria is so good it attracts VWs from all over Europe

WOLFSBURG IN EGGENBURG

Since 1991, the ARBÖ Club has organised an annual VW Beetle meeting in Eggenburg. It’s held on May 1, which handily happens to be a bank holiday in Austria. Eggenburg is a small town (founded in 1277, currently 3500 inhabitants) in the Waldviertel region, 70km northwest of Vienna.

Easily the largest VW meeting in Austria, the event attracted more than 500 air-cooled Volkswagens this year, the sunny weather and high temperatures no doubt helping. Among them were Porsches, replicas, New Beetles and a few exotics like the Karmann TC and VW Brasilia.

NICE ONE, SHERLOCK!

It’s fun investigating a car’s past – especially if the vehicle in question dates from the early fifties. That said, the Norwegian owner of this ’52 Beetle discovered more than he bargained for when he donned his deer-stalker
