Description

The current owner's family has owned the car since 2003. The car has been inspected/MOT'd and is now ready to drive. The car appears to have been parked for some years before being re-registered shortly before the millennium's turn. Since then, it hasn't rolled many kilometers. The car is never completely restored; rather, it is only maintained and serviced as needed. It's uncertain whether the car still has its original paint, but the colour looks right. In Volkswagen's portfolio, the 1500 S is a fun and little eccentric car. As a result, this car is a fantastic starting point for anyone interested in the classic car hobby. It's reasonably priced and offers a lot of "do it yourself" development possibilities.

The original-mounted dual carburetors, which allow you to choose between an original air filter and a sports air filter, the massive reversing light, and the gear lever knob from a Volkswagen Golf GTI all contribute to the car's livelier feel.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition

    It works in the engine and transmission. At idle, the engine operates unevenly. According to the owner, this is due to one of the carburetors hanging and will require an inspection.

  • Interior condition

    The interior is worn, but in good functioning order.

  • Exterior condition

    The car has some rust and dents that may need to be repaired. Previous owners most likely repainted it.

  • General condition

    A car that is in a functioning condition. It is unknown how far it has gone, although it is likely that it has travelled at least 118,000 kilometers.

Facts about the model

När produktionen av Typ 3 startade i augusti 1961 kom den först som Sedan-modellen,Notchback, följd av Variant i februari 1962. Coupé-versionen TL anlände i augusti 1965 – samtidigt hade 1600-motorn premiär. Tanken från Volkswagens sida var att coupén skulle ersätta Notchback men på flera marknader gillade man sedanen bättre och samtliga modeller levde tills produktionen lades ner 1973.
Typ 3 fick ett ansiktslyft 1970 med längre front, större stötfångare och de stora bakljusen.
Bakgrunden till Typ 3 var att man efter framgångarna med Typ 1 ville utveckla modellprogrammet med en något större bil. Grundkonstruktionen med luftkyld boxermotor monterad längst bak behölls, men Typ 3 fick lite större utrymmen och var också mer bekväm att åka i. Precis som Typ 1 konstruerades bilen med en bottenplatta som karossen sedan monterades på, och fjädringen sköttes med torsionsstavar. 1,5-litersmotorn som även fanns i Typ 1 konstruerades delvis om, så att den fick lägre höjd – bland annat genom att kylfläkten flyttades. Det gjorde att man fick plats med ett litet bagageutrymme ovanpå motorn, där Typ 1 bara hade ett stuvfack bakom baksätets ryggstöd. Till skillnad från Typ 1 var motorn och bakvagnen monterade i en hjälpram som i sin tur hade gummibussningar mot karossen, vilket minskade vibrationerna och förbättrade komforten.
Två år efter premiären 1961 kom S-modellen med dubbla förgasare. Bilarna blev snart populära i rally och sedermera folkrace – vilket betyder att det idag finns mycket få fina exemplar kvar.

  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends.
