My car is 18 years old and starting to cost money in repairs. The German Government is offering people 2500€ to get rid of their old cars and buy new cars (hopefully German made to help the German economy). I found an online dealer that is offering New Beetles for 4000 € off the list price. So I could actually buy a New Beetle for 6500€ off the price. Since I need a new car (or will need one in a year or two) I'm wondering if I should consider this offer? Generally I would never buy a brand new car. I looked, and it's actually cheaper to get a 2009 car, then a 2008 car. I guess they are just desperate to sell things now. You can also finance a car for almost 0%, so why pay cash? Your cash earns you interest sitting in a bank. I have not decided to buy a car. I'm very cheep, and if I knew I could get by with my 18 year old car for a few more years, I would do that. The problem is my car is starting to leek oil. Anyway, I would love a New Beetle. My dad use to own and repair Beetles when I was a kid. I think it would be so fun to own a Beetle!
Why not start with an IBC and cut a hole for the door? You could build closed laying boxes into it, and something for the chickens to roost on. Put some straw or saw dust on the floor. You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.
