New Twist: Wife Forces Sale

When a guy brings up his wife in a sales ad, most often he's complaining about how she wants the car gone so she has a spot in the garage. The owner of this 1982 VW near Manassas has a new twist to the old story. He needs the car gone because his wife split and now he doesn't have anyone to pick him up when his Beetle craps out and leaves him stranded.
Not sure about the wife, but the VW seems like a piece of work. If it's unreliable enough to ruin a marriage, we'd suggest the asking price of $3,500 is a bit high. Seller says it's loud, it burns oil and reverse is going out. And judging from the long list of new bits the seller has installed, it's a fabulous money pit. So if you're looking to drive the final nail into your marriage, this car could be for you. It's got a track record.

  1. '82? I doubt it, unless the Bug was transported here from Mexico. Beetle sedans weren't sold Stateside after 1977.
