Even the Beetle offered one as an option. The standard heater was a joke.
I spent a couple of winters in the late '60s with a brand new Beetle with
the stock heater and after that I will never own a Volkswagen product. We
used to open the windows in below zero temperatures to warm up.

When I was a student in the 1990s, I had a 1969 BMC Mini. It had the
opposite problem. The engine radiator was inadequate for the warm summer
months, so to get adequate engine cooling I had to turn the heater on
full blast to provide extra cooling for the water, and sweat it out!
