I also know you're not dsl, but this time you're on the button. 80" S1 with first style behind-the-grille lights, May 49+ darker green (officially "Bronze Green" but it's about as bronzey as a snowball). -- Last edit: 2025-12-20 15:30:42 |

I thought I'd be wrong because the door on a real Series 1 has a weird flap at the bottom of the window |

You're 11 years old, most people on this site are older than you & have better knowledge despite you being young & not being in College yet, I have no idea why IMCDB would hire an underage user, like does antp own a school?  |

I randomly came across this site while wanting to know what Beetle was in Paddington, shall we discuss further in the forum? -- Last edit: 2025-12-20 16:20:45 |

Lots of different things happened to S1 doors during its life. You're right that some S1 had a weird flap at the bottom of the window, but these were mainly hardtops with roofed cabins, and they were also detachable. The hardtops were also removable, and with the fold-down windscreen, a few minutes with a spanner could create the full wind-in-the-hair S1 experience. So don't get too hung-up on the door deployment except that only S1 had the low base door as seen here. And as another helpful hint, the slanted rear door edge was only 80" - later S1 had vertical rear edge. |

^ I've never heard of a spanner before so I had to Google it! |

The word spanner always makes me think of the bicycle repairman sketch of Monty Python. |
