Saturday Film Club: Failed VW Beetle replacements

The history of the VW is fascinating, and one aspect that is of interest to nerds like me is the huge variety of potential replacements Volkswagen looked as as potential replacements. 

Having a world-beating car on the books is a good thing, until your company leans on it too hard and for too long, and the rest of the industry moves on and you are left with something odd and obselete as your main product. 

History tells us that eventually the Golf came along and was another major success, but it's interesting to see what might have been.
