Look no further, the Ultimate Volkswagen is available, Volkswagen (VW) is the original and biggest-selling marque of the Volkswagen Group, which now also owns the Audi, Bentley, Bugatti, Lamborghini, SEAT and Škoda marques and the truck manufacturer Scania. Volkswagen was originally founded in 1937 by the Nazi trade union, the German Labour Front (Deutsche Arbeitsfront). The most popular Volkswagen vehicle was “The Beetle”. This economy car was produced between from 1938 until 2003. More than 21 million cars were manufactured in an air-cooled, rear-engined, rear-wheel drive configuration. The most famous Volkswagen is Herbie. A Disney Character from the 1968 feature film The Love Bug, who has a mind of his own and can drive all on his own. Herbie is easily distinguished by his red, white and blue racing stripes from front to back bumper, a racing-style number “53” on the front trunk lid, doors, and engine lid, and a yellow-on-black ’63 California license plate that says, “OFP 857”. However in this year’s Herbie movie, who knows maybe he’ll be sporting a VIW registration. If you would like to view all our VIW number plates simply click on VIW Irish Plates.
