Welcome back to DubLife Diaries! In this episode, we sit down with Volkswagen enthusiast Jaga Rai as he shares the tale of his beloved 1975 Canadian standard Beetle, affectionately known as "The Outlaw." Since purchasing the Beetle in 1997, Jaga has defied trends, poured his heart into its unique build, and developed lifelong friendships along the way.
