1963 Volkswagen Beetle (Herbie The Love Bug replica). This is a movie-accurate replica of Herbie, the 1963 ragtop VW Beetle from the beloved Disney movies The Love Bug, Herbie Rides Again, Herbie Goes To Monte Carlo & Herbie Goes Bananas. Herbie’s racing decals with the number 53 & red, white & blue stripes are identical to an original movie car which was used to create the decals and used as a reference for positioning. He is the correct year for the movie car (1963), a left-hand drive car, has a genuine grey ragtop sunroof (extremely rare and movie-accurate) with the racing stripes painted over the vinyl sunroof with special paint to match the film cars. This is one of, if not the best, Herbie replica in the UK. He has been displayed in the halls at the annual VolksWorld Show and has won many awards at air-cooled VW shows. He currently sports his wide-rim racing wheels as seen in The Love Bug, Monte Carlo & Bananas, but also has his original stock VW wheels as seen in Herbie Rides Again, which can be fitted if required. If you’re looking for a piece of movie history, this is it. Everyone knows and loves Herbie, and this car is instantly recognisable. He also has movie-accurate California number plates with Herbie’s registration of OFP 857 which can easily be fitted for photo shoots or filming,
