Models of Volkswagen Beetle have proved highly popular ever since the very first one was made back in 1938.
The first model, built by workers of the Porche company in Stuttgart, was never sold but sparked the first of a number of model Beetles to be produced by various companies in Germany before 1940.
Today, VW Beetles are highly collectable, both in model and 'on the road form', and now two new model 'Bugs' join the ever-growing model VW family thanks to The Diecast Collector and Lledo.
The British manufacturing diecast firm to produce the FREE Bettle attached to the front of this magazine.
Chances are that you have a red VW, but a very limited number of yellow VW Beetles have also been produced with only 250 have been released nationwide.
Your red VW is worth GBP.6.25, but there is no doubt that the limited edition yellow versions will be highly sought after-and worth a lot more.
So, if you've a yellow VW on the front of your Diecast Collector, congratulations! If not, we hope you'll enjoy your red 'Bug' just the same - but keep an eye out in the shops for those treasured yellow versions.
