"The car runs well and feels composed on the road. It leaves a positive overall impression and benefits from a permanent inspection exemption, meaning no further periodic roadworthiness inspections are required."

Description

The car is being offered for sale on behalf of an estate. The current owner’s daughter purchased the car in 1992 before selling it to her father in 1994. Shortly after acquiring the vehicle, he had it repainted in its original factory colour.

Since then, the car has been used sparingly and has remained remarkably well preserved, having escaped the significant corrosion issues that often affect examples of this model.

    The original interior remains in good condition and displays visible signs of use consistent with the car’s age and mileage. There are a few holes in the driver’s seat, but the cabin retains an honest and authentic appearance. A professional detailing would further enhance the overall presentation.

Facts about the model

The 1303S represented the ultimate evolution of the Volkswagen Beetle and was the most comprehensively equipped version of the model. It was also the last Beetle variant to be produced exclusively in Germany. Simpler 1200 and 1300 models continued to be manufactured at various plants around the world, most notably in Mexico, where Beetle production finally came to an end in 2003.

Today, the 1303 is highly sought after for its improved driving characteristics, enhanced comfort, and distinctive curved windscreen, which set it apart from earlier Beetle models. Combining the classic Beetle character with the most developed chassis and suspension package of the series, the 1303S is widely regarded as the most usable and refined version of Volkswagen’s iconic people’s car.

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.
