    The other two can’t be converted.

    The VW beetle was the most reliable vehicle in the early 80’s.
    And today it still wins it’s class for the most reliable vehicle,in the JD Powers US survey.
    Amazing.

    We then looked at LR reliability for the last few years in the survey,and it’s not improving,seems to be going the other wayThe COVID-19 & Corona free thread.The COVID-19 & Corona free thread.

    I drove a loan Vee Wee when my Holden HR was in for some panel repairs. I did not want to hand it back, it seemed so good. I can't recall, did they have a 5th gear sort of overdrive because in top she could move like buggery & I was lucky I did not attract the attention of the old Bill.

    Drove another one in PNG & that had similar characteristics.

    Most VW beetles had four gears, but the "overdrive" question is hardly relevant - all gears were indirect, and from memory fourth was in fact actually tachnically overdrive - output shaft turned faster than the input. But note that the output shaft was actually the layshaft on a conventional box.
