porsche invented the 4 cyl boxer in one night
for the world greatest car ever seen the beetle

Aircooled boxers are great an very reliable also have alot off bottom power.
inline engine mostly have more power in high rev.
I believe this bottom power on radials gives the torque effect.
How reliable now i talk from experience i took my beetle on vacation a few years ago i went from holland to venice and went via Monaco, St. tropez to lloret de mar near barcelona (spain) and back to holland. I did it all with my old 44 hp boxer wich i had to start up with after- shave through my carburator. Probably my cylinder head leaked a bit. I went full gas all the road i notice some power loss in the end against hills. But it went on and on

And brought me through a 5000 km trip with no problems at all.
I have seen a lot off modern watercooled cars having probs standing a side on the highway.
It was a hot summer and the traffic help had 20% more cals from cars that went broke.
could never made with it water cooling.
The beetle rocks IMHO
