I know this isn't my normal thing to report on, but since technically I am about to show a Volkswagen, I guess I should be alright. A Reddit user named bowie-in-space found this interesting specimen in a parking lot in New York.
At this angle you can see some odd, yet functional mods. It may be completely out of the ordinary to see a Volkswagen Beetle with a Bull bar, winch, and KC off road lights. However it isn't a completely useless idea. Certainly the roof rack adorning this custom Bug is nothing if not useful. If you take a moment to look at the picture and pay attention to the details you will see the spare tire on said roof rack. Why does it matter, you may ask? Just take a second and look at it... go ahead... That tire doesn't look like any tire that would ever belong on a Beetle. If we walk around to the rear end and look at the other side:
Now it all makes sense. Someone took the time, effort, and money to put a lift kit on this Volkswagen Beetle along with the aforementioned oversize tires. What makes this whole custom job seem like a waste of time is the fact that the only Volkswagen Beetle that was ever produced with Volkswagen's 4motion All Wheel Drive system was the RSi version that was produced from 2001 to 2003 with the VR6 engine in it. This most certainly is not one of those models. Whether it is a front wheel drive vehicle or some sort of custom all wheel drive system, no one can argue that this isn't an interesting Beetle. It certainly looks like it can get some work done.
