The Beetle's roof contour is what Hucho calls "pseudo-Jaray." It's too fast to be a proper fastback,and the low pressure of separation induces higher pressure from under and besides the car to flow upwards towards the low,attempting to reach pressure equilibrium.
It sounds like those Gerrelt-style backlight visors are getting it wrong. How about the GTI 650?
