From The Panel, 4:32 pm on 10 July 2019

Question of the Day: What's your most memorable car experience? The last Volkswagon Beetle has rolled off the production line in Mexico. It's had a few incarnations, the latest began in 2011 and there was an earlier rebirth in 1997. The car that became an icon of the hippie generation originated in late-1930s Nazi Germany and became the world's most popular car. Twenty-one-and-a-half million Beetles have been sold worldwide.
