The Beetle is amongst the most significant cars in history - and certainly the most recognisable. The German 'people's car' was a perfect balance of personality and simplicity, and perfectly economic for the general public. Nowadays, they've become icons of so many movements that you'd have trouble fitting them into your average novel, and for modern money? They're the perfect starter classic. Simple, straightforward and with perhaps the best part availability out there.
This striking yellow bug has been with its current keeper for over thirty years - and what an example it is. Plenty of work has been carried out on this car over the years, leading to a solid, well-presented classic that's still carrying its original cabin. Throughout its tenure, the car has been garaged and kept undercover.
A good Beetle is a car worth cherishing, and we've no doubt this car will become a much-loved classic. image.png2.44 MB
