Strange how bugs disappeared all of a sudden. Used to see half a dozen on any trip, and now I'll go months between sightings. Also used to have lots of bug junk yards, and now I don't know of any.

As early as 2010, when I was last in Mexico City, they were still making new (old) bugs. At least half the cars were bugs. Don't know how things look now, but I bet there's lots of parts availability still.
