For 1974 Volkswagen offered a special edition series for the standard beetle, the Super Beetle, and the Cabriolet. These were painted a special Harvest Gold and came  with upgraded interiors and sport silver painted wheels.  The series was given the title “Sun Bug.” Minichamps issued a Super Beetle in 1:43.  Here is a comparison between the full size and the 1:43 models

A good-looking VW in model and real form. The color is really attractive, too.
