Summary:

Introducing Herbie the Love Bug...the little car with a mind and heart of his own...in the first of his wild adventures on and off the racetrack.

Note: if you find yourself being followed by a little VW without a driver, you'll know you're in luck. Herbie has adopted you; from now on, you can't lose!

That's what happened to race driver Jim Douglas. Even in a destruction derby he was a loser - until he met Herbie the Love Bug.
