As always - Thank You for the wealth of information shared here.

I may have a deal on a 2000 VW Manual Transmission "New Beetle."

From a friend and neighbor, decent condition, and a perfect paint match to my yellow 23 footer. (455 with a 3.70 LS FD).

Any opinions or experiences to share ?? Preferred tow bar ?? Advice ??

Thanks again,

I've pulled both Jetta and Golf's of that same vintage. All three are basically the same and tow well all 4 down. Some of the next generation did have occasional problems and needed a bungee to keep the wheels straight but mine never did.
