im trying to remember the name of an 1980s transforming toy robot. it was not a Transformer, but might have been either a Gobot or from the Robotech line or something else. It changed from a robot into a VW bug. All I can remember was it had the name “Von” as part of its name. It had a long 3-word name, and I think Von was the second word that was part of its name.

You’ve got two of the Super Go-bots mixed up but they did transform in virtually the same manner.
Baron Von Joy transformed into a Porsche
Bug Bite transformed into a VW Bug
