Description

This car was delivered new by Volkswagen LTD North London on 23rd February 1967. The buyer was the famous actor Stewart Granger who used the car for a few years before it was sold.
The car came to Sweden in 1977 as moving goods and has been used sparingly by 4 owners in Skåne.
The current owner bought the car in 1997 and has used it for enthusiast tours in the summer.
During his ownership, he has taken good care of it and, among other things, changed all the panels from VW originals and had them painted in the original colour.

  • Exterior condition:

    The wings have been replaced and painted in the original colour, and the rest of the car has the original paint preserved. Chrome, wheels and new tyres without damage.

  • General condition:

    A lovely example of the sought-after 1967 model year which is in a nice, ready-to-drive condition. A right-hand drive German is unusual on our Swedish roads.
