We　are　speaking　to　you　from　underneath　a　Volkswagen.

Not　much　to　look　at,　is　there?

Too　bad　that　big　steel　is　in　the　way.　Otherwise,　you　could　see　all　of　the　Volkswagens　works.

But　dont　feel　cheated.

That　sheet　of　steel　is　the　Volkswagens　bottom.　No　other　car　has　anything　quite　like　it.

The　steel　bottom　protects　the　VW‘s　vital　parts　against　everything.　Including　time.　It’s　one　of　the　big　reasons　why　VWs　last　so　long.

The　VW‘s　bottom　wasn’t　an　afterthought.　Its　part　of　the　design.　The　car　is　sealed　to　the　bottom　and　the　bottom　is　sealed　to　the　car.

Which　is　why　a　VW　is　practically　airtight.　And　why　some　of　the　rumors　you‘ve　heard　about　floating　Volkswagens　aren’t　just　rumor.

The　VWs　funny-looking　top　and　funny-looking　bottom　have　one　thing　in　common:　the　both　work　to　make　the　Volkswagen　as　good　as　it　is.

It　would　be　easy　enough　to　change　them.

But　we　think　well　leave　bad　enough　alone.
