They used indeed a "The Beetle" plate on the photos, but it does not look like a model name, as they do not use that name anywhere else in the document. Sometimes they use "the" (lowercase) as an article, or just "Beetle" without "The". I bet I can find old french brochures from Renault with a "La" in front of some model names on the plates -- Last edit: 2023-06-30 22:00:21
