Re: Beetle Engine Catches Fire

He grabs a extinguisher at 0:49 from the passenger side, for some reason it didn't work, he throws it on the ground at 1:02.

In Brazil a fire extinguisher was mandatory and the expiration had to be up date, now it's optional, then it expires and when you need, this happens.
Everyone I knew that had a VW bug carried a fire extinguisher in their car. The extinguishers were pretty cheap, about $5, I think. This was in the 1970's.

Re: Beetle Engine Catches Fire

Kind of comical that we finally see someone helping their fellow man— in Brazil no less— and the fire extinguisher is a damn dirty dud.

If I had a VW bug, I would have named it "Lucy"

because "LUCY! You got some sploding to do!"

Re: Beetle Engine Catches Fire

I reckon it's cheaper and easier to get bullets than fire extinguishers in Brazil
