I love all the vintage air cooled VW’s, especially the vans. I had four of them. This museum shows the evolution of the company from its beginning to the present day. When I win the lotto I will be contributing to them so that the museum stays alive for future generations to see. Thanks for the tour.
I have owned 6 Volkswagens in my lifetime ( '61 Bug, '73 Super Beetle, 2 Westies) and each was a gem (and joy) of it's time. Always had a can of WD 40, too!
Having owned three T2s and two T1s, all pre-67, and still a fan of old VWs, this is a treat. On my two trips to Europe in 2019, this was one of my desired places to visit, but couldn't make it. Goodness knows now when I'll be able to return. Thanks for sharing.
This is awesome video. One of a kind. The Museum of Volkswagen. What a History! Different years with distinct models. Amazing! Thank for sharing this idea.

I own the first ever prototype of the first Australian built and designed Volkswagen, they were an open utility vehicle somewhat like a Kublewagon or Thing, but without doors, think of something like a BMC Mini Moke. After restoration, it should go to the museum. Ps ,I have a 67 type 2, a 72 super beetle, I've had a 65 kombi, several 70s type 2s, 3 beetles from the early 60s too.
I really enjoyed this beautiful coverage. My first car was an old refurbished Beetle bought in 1988, used Golf 2 n 3. VW my ride for over 20 years with breaks though in between. 👍
Exelente muy excelente siempre me han gustado los VW y en especial la VW combi, espero algún día poseer una propia para pasear por mi bella Venezuela...
travelled to capetown 10 yrs ago. i stopped into vw dealer. by far the largest showroom ive ever seen, loaded with all models. cars, pickups, vans, sportcars for sale that we never see in the us. amazing lineup.
Nice piece of history, But the way it was filmed and presented wasn't so great, it could've been taken slowly and showed the description of each vehicle.
Like those antique 1950-1967 VW busses in Germany. They also make high roof VW Vans even for 2nd generation from 1968-1979 as the "Bay window", as well as the 3rd generation from 1980 to 1990s, such as ambulance, and it work like a heavy duty trucks, such as cherry picker for fixing or installing LED street lights, pruning trees, etc. Some are topless as an open models. Will Volkswagen make "Jetson" cars?
3:38...Either that white soft top sunroof bug was mislabeled as a '64 (which was first year of metal top sunroofs), or perhaps it was a very early '64 model which may have been among the very last soft top sunroof bugs made. This was the case at least for USA export models. Either way, if it also has the '58-'63 round headed license plate light, all it needs to be made into a "Herbie" are the red/white/blue stripes and the "53" decals. 3:51...This one has the correct turn signals, correct soft top sunroof, bumpers, and wheels to be a "Herbie", but the greenhouse (glass area) is not right. 4:25...I never knew these existed before! 5:56...I've only seen one Schwimmwagen my whole life at a Vintage VW show years ago. 6:17...Nice Kubelwagen! 8:55...This reminds me of that unwrecked '56(with no turn signals) Type 2 that I saw in a junkyard during the '70's, stacked on top of other cars, still apparently undamaged. That one should have been saved!
..Is the original building where they laid the original cornerstone still there?...I know none of the "cornerstone" prototype Beetles still exist..(as far as anyone knows :)....
I dont mean to be so off topic but does any of you know of a tool to log back into an instagram account?? I stupidly lost my account password. I would love any tips you can give me
@Denver Danny Thanks for your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm. I see it takes a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Beautiful museum and wonderful cars. As I understand these cars and the VW company they were built from the original Ferdinand Porsche design from the 1930's, who was a great engineer and designer!!! -- It was necessary for VW introduced Gulf Mk1/Rabbit in the 1970's in order to comply with new government regulations, IMO the Gulf was a great car too. -- I owned a few VW's Bugs in the 1960's and thought they were fantastic, I wish I still had them.
@@davidkastin4240 : Gulf is an appropriate nickname. There was a gulf between what VW should have spent on it and what they actually spent on it. The original Golf were terrible fault-prone cars due to cost cutting. Eg they made the accelerator cable a couple of cm too short, so that when the engine rocked on its mounts, it could tear the cable out of the carby. VW was never a quality car maker but Beetles were generally fairly trouble free cars - although the engine could overheat in Australian conditions, leading to burnt valves and consequently high fuel consumption and rough running.
@@keithammleter3824 ~ The original Bugs, designed in the 1930s, were not built for Interstate freeway speeds and sitting in hot Southern California gridlock without A/C. Although they were great in the beach towns on local roads that are cooled by the prevailing ocean breeze.
@@martentrudeau6948 They weren't built for Australia's hills. freeways, and hot summer climate either. But they were popular among uni students and young girls because they had light steering and no engine coolant to worry about. We used to hear VW's popping and banging about due to burnt valves from overheating causing misfiring, causing unburnt gasoline being pumped into the exhaust system and detonating there. Some young owners used to not realise they still needed to check, top-up, and change oil, leading to more catastrophic failures. VW used the same engine in the Kombi van, where it had to work a lot harder. In commercial service, Kombi engines could be ruined in as little as 12 months. In private ownership where they seldom carried a full load, Kombi engines could last a reasonable time, especially if the owner fitted a common modification - fitting forward-facing air scoops on each side so that more cooling air was forced into the engine. To be fair, the only available competition to Kombi's here was the English Commer van - it was not much better. When the Toyota Hi-Ace vans arrived in the 1970's, Kombis and Commers become unsaleable.
Aqui no Brasil, costumam colocar motor AP2.0 no fusca, o que nunca foi lançado original de fábrica. Contrário da Alemanha que já vinha instalado de fábrica o 1.6L
Muy buen video Pero mi pregunta es No tienen una Vw Hormiga?? Es un camión de carga que solo se fabrico en México pero yo pense que tenia uno haya Yo soy dueño de una Vw Hormiga 1977 es genial Saludos desde México cdmx
Aos 3:04 um fusca com motor refrigerado a água, apesar de parecer com o motor AP não é o mesmo, pela posição da bomba dagua de coletor de escape deve ser um motor da família EA 111 só não sei a potência.
Mir wird schwindelig vom Zuschauen. Ein richtiger Wackel-Marathon.

Nice! I also love the T1s. ❤️
Thanks for the quick tour! What a enormous, surprising, variety of different makes and models!
I have owned 6 Volkswagens in my lifetime ( '61 Bug, '73 Super Beetle, 2 Westies) and each was a gem (and joy) of it's time. Always had a can of WD 40, too!
I had a 60 bus, 65 bug sunroof 68 bug autostick and other bugs also
Thanks for the tour. I saw my old bus, my old flatbed truck, but not my '58 Ghia... Beautifully restored vehicles!

May God help you!
Cool...great music too...
Thanks!
A lot of dream cars!!! Golf Kamei, Type 1, Golf A1, Passat Variant! Oh my ...! Thanks for share it.

Probably the largest collection of fire starters one will ever see, but still cool and amazing none the less.
Good video, I still have my combi 72

Wonderful!!. But couldn't see a vw variant station wagon of the 1970's
Very nicely done! 👍❤️ Thank you!
Excelente matéria, para os aficcionados em kombis e fuscas like 1220
🤌🏻
😭 😭
The Beetle (Original Design) was to be of eternal manufacture. I am an eternal lover with this cart and its history.
Brazilians love Fusca a lot.
i live in wolfsburg and drive past the museum almost every day
Exelente muy excelente siempre me han gustado los VW y en especial la VW combi, espero algún día poseer una propia para pasear por mi bella Venezuela...
Bella Venezuela? Venezuela es una asquerosa mierda.
We have a van in my teen year. I learn to drive from it. Nice to see all model from early production to present. It like learning history.
Enjoy viewing VW Museum! Mike from Missouri

I'm so pleased to see the type 34 Karmann-Ghia Volkswagen's most beautiful car!
0:01 Да, была душа в старых автомобилях!😊
Would love what year was the matte black with red stripes R8 looking thing was.
Watching from the USA, very interesting Smitty out 🙃
Glad you enjoyed!
Espetacular !
Parabéns.
I would of liked to see more of the bicycle at the beginning that seemed pretty crazy 😜
Ignored any and all type 3s?
Nice piece of history,
But the way it was filmed and presented wasn't so great,
it could've been taken slowly and showed the description of each vehicle.
Great Idea but way too much panning, it's dizzying and unwatchable. nice try though.
You are way too much stupid…. Go away johno
ich wohne in wolfsburg. fahre fast täglich an dem museum vorbei. hätten uns treffen können

i have owned plenty volkswagens and really like them .......sehr beqeum
What VWs? What models?
das waren sehr schöne Autos
Fluffy would be in love with this place 💓
wheres the thing car at?
Love the air cooled. Hate the music. Had to bail out of an otherwise very cool video. Was like being on hold with the power company.
I just turned down the volume fully... Problem solved... 😁

4:25...I never knew these existed before!
5:56...I've only seen one Schwimmwagen my whole life at a Vintage VW show years ago.
6:17...Nice Kubelwagen!
8:55...This reminds me of that unwrecked '56(with no turn signals) Type 2 that I saw in a junkyard during the '70's, stacked on top of other cars, still apparently undamaged. That one should have been saved!
This is a good video.
Schön!
..Is the original building where they laid the original cornerstone still there?...I know none of the "cornerstone" prototype Beetles still exist..(as far as anyone knows :)....

Great video but mute the music or you will go crazy!!
Assistindo o vídeo aqui de casa na cidade de Belford Roxo - Brazil
Perfect music for the video. Please, in the future, pan at least half as fast.
Will do so! Thanks 🙏🏻
I love the Combis and Beetles
I love all the aircooled VWs!
Ah yes, the VolksTanker what a well-rounded machine, Trully ahead of its time. 11:29
My first car was a 57 Oval Window Beetle, wish I still had it
The beetles from the 50s are awesome.Very nice job but you have to hold more steadly the camera and move more slowly for better focus
Great camera work.
iPhone 6s. 😜
I love them all! Muito Obrigado! 😀
🙏🏻me too
I have visited porsche and Mercedes museums next time in Germany volkswagen museum
Muy buen video
Pero mi pregunta es
No tienen una Vw Hormiga??
Es un camión de carga que solo se fabrico en México pero yo pense que tenia uno haya
Yo soy dueño de una Vw Hormiga 1977 es genial
Saludos desde México cdmx
I love volkswagen pullmino 1978 model ,I have a volkswagen pullmino
Wieviel kostet der Eintritt?
I don’t remember exactly. It was long time ago.
Where are you SP 1 and SP2 brasilian design?????
And where is the original Karmann-Ghia Type 14, and it's later hatchback version from Brazil the Karmann-Ghia TC?
I was there in 2018. 👍
Im planning a trip there! 2500KMS!
For me 5.8 km. And it is really nice, my girlfriend likes it very much.
"EXCELENTE 👍👍👍" Una Fabrica de Autos-un Automóvil-un sueño, Saludos desde México 🇲🇽👍

Si
VW 1965 to 1969 models are classic beauty.
I owned OVER A LONG PERIOD OD TIME A 1953 SEDAN TO A 1969 BUS. GREAT CARS!!!
autos fabulosos. Me gusto mas la vagoneta doblecabina. Solo falto la VW HORMIGA.
This is the only museum that I really like man!!!
It is very nice! One of my favs too!
I visited VW Autostadt back in 2015. I could have spent all day at the museum but the folks I went with were not exactly car enthusiasts.
It is a great car temple!
I WOULD LOVE TO VISIT THERE AND OWN 9 VWS TRANSPORTER T1. TRANSPORTER T2 AND LT AND CRAFTER
VW deve agradecer, de joelhos, ao Império Britânico!
Massa falida não requer agradecimentos!
Quer dizer: VW comprou, pagou... e, ainda, tinha de agradecer?
bravo bravo bravo
Thanks!
does every manufacture have a dedicated museum ?
Big brands, yeah
El mejor museo de todos los modelos vw, esta en Puerto Rico, yauco mas de 200 vw
I'm in PARADISE! They showed the Original Karmann-Ghia, and next to it, my FAVOURITE, the Second Karmann-Ghia, the RAZOREDGE (I.e. 2nd) Karmann-Ghia!
Nice! I also like KG, after T1 :D
@@Barbosulro I'm glad you also like KARMANN-GHIAS! I learnt to drive on a T 1!
