About this title

About the Author

Richard Copping has been a follower of the Volkswagen marque since acquiring his first car, a Beetle, in 1977. Although still an ardent fan of VW’s air-cooled heritage, in recent years he has succumbed like so many to the charms of Europe’s best selling hatch, adding the Golf to the portfolio of vehicles he writes about. His student days spent learning the craft of the historian have ensured a lively, authoritative style to his work and genuine empathy with the spirit of the age he is writing about.

Photographer Ken Cservenka bought his first Beetle in 1969 and has been involved with VW's ever since. His technical knowledge and ability is widely recognized, while his pictures of Beetles and other VW models stand out from the crowd.
