Brazilian Volkswagen Fusca. How's that: Flat headlight assembly with mid-sized indicator (similar what we have in USA between 1968/69) with bonnet black handle and white bumper. Comments? |

Isn't Fusca just a nickname, like Beetle or Vocho? |

Principially yes, but at least for the last officially sold Typ 1 in Europe (the Mexican made 1200 from 1978-1985), the Volkswagen AG took over this nickname for the sales-brochures. Before that they used these plenty of nick-names -every language has its own, just look around at IMCDB- only for magazine-advertises. |

VW Sedan "Fusca", in my opinion? right? |
◊ 2010-09-22 14:04 |
Several Nicknames and "Selling" Names, what about calling it: "Käfer" |
◊ 2010-09-22 14:09 |
To be authentic, we can use "Käfer" only for the German speaking countries. |

I know, but were are Beetle/Bug/Käfers etc. Roots? And who calles for Example a Chevrolet Impala "Springbock" . But at least, it shows that the VW Typ1 was and even is a real World Car... |

Not everything should be translated: /vehicle_180064-Nissan-Moco.html |

"Moco", for Hispanic and generally speaking, for Latinos, is the mucus from the nose. It would be a laugh, a joke that name in this part of the world. |
