Description
Here we have our much-loved VW Beetle “Dory,” a very honest and well-maintained classic.
This is a turn-key usable Beetle, not a project – with the expensive work already done.
Highlights:
Engine replaced by VW Engine Company (~1, 000 miles ago)
Full chassis and underbody refurbishment completed
New heater channels (major structural work done)
New brakes, fuel system, starter motor, and battery
Upgraded retro stereo with Bluetooth + JBL speakers
Bodywork presents very well with only minor age-related marks. Interior is tidy, though front seats would benefit from refurbishment.
Currently on alloys, but original wheels are included.
Registered historic – no tax, no MOT required.
Starts first time, drives great, and gets plenty of attention.
Selling reluctantly due to lack of use.“Dory” is everything people love about a classic Volkswagen Beetle 1302S — full of character, charm, and unmistakable style. She’s a great example of the iconic Beetle: simple, honest, and built to be enjoyed. Wherever we’ve taken her, she’s a real head-turner, always getting smiles, waves, and conversations from people who remember them fondly or just appreciate a proper classic. Behind the wheel, she’s an absolute pleasure to drive — light, engaging, and full of personality — the kind of car that will put a smile on your face every single time you set off.
