Despite the grand plans, only a few hundred Beetles were built before war stopped production. At the end of the war, the VW factory at Wolfsburg was in the British controlled area of Germany and, ironically, for this the most German of cars, it was the British who got the Beetle back into production and started it on the path to the huge international success it would achieve with the production of over twenty million units.
