The car that defined an era of classic automobiles, the original Volkswagen Beetle, ended 65 years of production this month in 2003. Sometimes referred to as the Bug, it was firstdesigned to be cheap, simple, and capable of being mass-produced for the general public. After its debut in 1938, Volkswagen fell on hard times with the advent of World War II and Germany's eventual defeat by the Allied Forces. The company would have disappeared if it had not been for the efforts of a British Army officer, Major Ivan Hirst, who helped get Volkswagen's factories up and running again.

被定義為經典汽車時代的原始福斯金龜車在 2003 年七月時結束了六十五年的生產。金龜車有時被稱作Bug，最初它的設計考量是便宜、簡單和能夠被大量生產給大眾。1938年原始金龜車首次問世後，隨著第二次世界大戰的來臨和德國最後被同盟國擊敗，福斯汽車經歷了艱苦時期。如果沒有英國少校軍官伊凡•赫斯特努力幫助福斯汽車重新站起來的話，這家公司可能會消失。
