The Plus
Loved for its affordability, innovative engineering and compact package, the NSU 1000 C was a prodigious success, rivalling the likes of the Volkswagen Beetle thanks to its similar rear-engined design philosophy.
This example stands out for its complete restoration, which has completely rejuvenated the vehicle. New paintwork, fresh upholstery and a replacement carpet all contribute to giving the car a fresh and attractive appearance, while the mechanical work carried out ensures that the car is road-ready.
