Background Story of this 1998 Volkswagen Beetle

One of the fleet of Nintendo Vehicles coined as "PokePatrol" that toured the United States to promote Pokemon in 1998 through the mid-2000s.

Overview of 1998 Volkswagen Beetle For Sale by Owner

The Volkswagen Beetle is such an icon of car culture that it's hard to see how a follow-up could be done. However, that's just what Volkswagen did in 1997 with the aptly-named New Beetle. While the New Beetle would be somewhat constrained by modern safety and emissions regulations, it still emerged as a fond tribute to the original. Thanks to its cutesy nature, the New Beetle would see some adaptations, such as witnessed by this 1998 Volkswagen Beetle Pikabug. Said to be #9 from the PokePatrol fleet, this one-of-a-kind Beetle sports a healthy 176,000 miles, showing that it enjoys long runs. The current owner reports the car has a new engine and also comes with the original engine. It holds the crown of being one of the fleet of Nintendo Vehicles coined as "PokePatrol" that toured the United States to promote Pokemon in 1998 through the mid-2000s. Let's delve a little deeper into its specifics, but if you're a Pokemon fan, no need to read any further. Just get in touch with us, and we'll tell you how to take it home.
