Yeah he's supposed to have a good look at the tube to see if it moved,
and the bowden tube is not actually too short.

Are there various length bowden tubes? is it possible this is one from
a bug or something?  anyone got some great book with lengths?

CIP1 shows a single part for:

  BEETLE 46-71 / GHIA 56-74 / BUS 50-67 / TYPE 3 62-74 / THING 73-74

so, that's quite a few years, hmm. I guess it's more likely that
the clutch tube has moved.  unless somehow the these had a shorter one
and that's what I have:

  BEETLE / GHIA 72-11/73 / BUS 68-79
