Originally the brainchild of Dutchman Ben Pon; VW introduced the
First "Type II" in 1949 (the Type l was the Beetle) and it was named the
Bulli (meaning "Workhorse").
Able to carry eight people or a 15-hand horse, it's regarded by enthusiasts as the zenith of Type II production and was produced for 18 years with many developments and variations.
