Spend a Night in the World’s Smallest* Hotel

Last week we featured a video of a YouTuber hacking up a Golf to make the world’s smallest working Golf now we’ve found a hollowed out Beetle that’s (probably not) the world’s smallest hotel room.

Although the fine fellas at Guinness disagree, this Beetle is undoubtedly a tiny place to spend the night. One that you might want to spend in. Located deep in the Jordanian desert near Al Jaya, up to two people can spend the night in this love bug for $56—and that includes a breakfast or lunch.

Started in 2011, this hotel room features hand-embroidered sheets and pillows and… not much else. It is a Beetle after all, so fitting anything more than a bed is a challenge.

World-renowned Beetle-sleuth Jason Torchinsky figures that this a ’73, though that’s a guess because quite a few body panels have been removed.

The hotel’s owner, Al Malaheem must be doing alright, because he apparently wants to buy some more Beetles to make more rooms. So you too can spend a night near the Crusader Castle Montreal from the comfort of a Beetle.

2018 Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster Review

“Supercars just don’t excite me anymore.” These words, spoken to me over a month ago by another journalist, friend, and (so-called) enthusiast were echoing in my head for far too long, but they’ve finally been drowned out. Drowned out by the wail of a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine mounted in the middle of the new Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster. My friend’s point is that back in the good old days, there was a crop of supercars that captured the imagination with amazing style, sounds, performance, and more. Today, it seems like everything is capable of supercar performance, with large luxury sedans outdoing some of the best and most dedicated teams of car nuts, while former pillars of automotive excellence are suddenly pumping out family-friendly SUVs. Beyond that, another league of supercars, dubbed hypercars have cropped up with hybrid gas-electric powertrains that make magical things happen quickly, but at the cost of the acoustic drama, visual flair, and engag...

Project SportWagen: Going Stage 2 with APR

    When we last left you, the humble little SportWagen was fresh from the development process with our friends at AWE Tuning, sporting a new downpipe, exhaust and intake, allowing things to breathe a bit easier.  The car sounded great, but there was no getting around the fact that our wagon was still quite, well, slow.   While we realize that nothing we do to the Golf SportWagen at this point will make it a race car, we still felt compelled to do something .  To put it bluntly, we had a fever, and the only cure was more power. Flash forward a few hours, and we found ourselves at Waterfest, staring down APR’s palatial spread and the numerous tuned vehicles surrounding it.  Earlier in the year, APR had hinted to us that their 1.8 TSI files would be quite impressive, and based on what they were able to do with the 2.0 TSI found in the new GTI and our time in their Golf R, we knew it’d be worth the wait.  So with this in mind, we lined our G...
