I was going to suggest that an invasive predator species was introduced that eradicated the Beetle and took over the environment, but I couldn't think of another foreign car make/model that fit that description.

I think my attempt to become bilingual has not only been disappointing in terms of my Spanish fluency - now the part of my brain that housed my English language skills is so confused, I can't clearly communicate even in my native tongue.
