Home.

My Name is Arran I am a Student Nurse studying Mental Health Nursing in Dundee. I am due to finish in September and start as a nurse. When I am not working long 12 hour shifts on placement or writing my dissertation this takes up my time (and my wages). It’s my short wheelbase 1962 Volksrod mk3 shell Beach Buggy. Completely correctly registered as a VW Beach Buggy. Good luck trying to find that on the V5. Many buggies are not registered correctly and retain beetle on the documents.

Purchased in 2012 as a restoration project it’s been a labour of love. Hit the road in 2015 and as been to many UK and International Buggy Events since restoration. Furthest travelled to Osnabruk in Germany for International Buggy Weekend 2017 where it won furthest travelled.
