Description
The car was purchased new in Canada by a Swedish car enthusiast living in the United States, who believed the new Beetle was a beautiful model but was not available as a convertible at the time.
It was presented to California's Starman Coachbuilders, who created this beautiful model.
After a period, the car was transferred to the owner's summer residence on property, where it was used sporadically until his death in 2010.
An associate of the family purchased the car from the widow; it was then driven approximately 1500 km and used during the summer until 2018, when the current owner purchased the car. He drove it minimally over the summer but believes it is underutilised and hence decides to sell it.
VW would not manufacture their own convertible variant of the Beetle until 2003.

Auction information
General information about the condition of the vehicles .
- At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
- During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
Important to know before placing your bids!
- Once you have called in an item and the reservation price is reached we want you to deposit the entire purchase amount into our client funds account before retrieval can take place.
- When you need to retrieve a called in object we want you to examine it carefully. If you consider that the item does not match our description you do not need to complete the purchase. In this case the deposited purchase sum and the entry fee are refunded.
- If you do not examine the item on the spot the call charge will be debited, but you do not have to complete the deal.
- If you make the entire purchase exclusively at a distance you have 14 days to cancel, but must return the item at your own expense.
- Your shipping costs and other costs are not reimbursed when the right of withdrawal is exercised. Swedish court applies.
