Beschreibung
There is rust on the upper part of the left front fender and on the surface near the windshield, but otherwise, the paint is in decent condition, with some minor blemishes. The undercarriage has not been inspected, but from what can be seen, it appears to be in good shape. The car has not been driven since its 2020 inspection.
Teknische Daten
Beurteilung Fahrzeugzustand
-
Zustand technisch
The engine runs smoothly, and the gears shift well. The clutch has been replaced. Most technical functions are in working order, though some bulbs need replacing. The gear selector feels slightly soft, but new tires have been fitted on black-painted wheels.
-
Zustand Interieur
The interior is in decent condition but could definitely be refined. The driver’s seat shows wear, but the rest of the upholstery is intact, though it could use a cleaning. There is some sun fading on the top of the rear seatback. The door panels are in functional condition, and there is a small crack on the dashboard above the instrument cluster.
-
Zustand Exterieur
The paint is relatively glossy and in good condition, though there are some minor blemishes. There is rust on the front fender, and the chrome has some pitting. However, the glass and trim are in good usable condition.
-
Zustand gesamt
Overall, the car gives a good impression for a driver-quality vehicle. There are things to address if one wants to bring it to a higher standard, but it can be enjoyed as is—all depending on personal preference.

Fakten zum Modell
Like the Type 1, the car was built on a separate floor pan onto which the body was mounted, and the suspension used torsion bars. The 1.5-liter engine, which was also available in the Type 1, was redesigned to have a lower profile (known as the "pancake engine"), achieved by relocating the cooling fan. This modification allowed for a small luggage compartment above the engine, whereas the Type 1 only had a storage space behind the rear seatback.
Unlike the Type 1, the engine and rear suspension were mounted on a subframe, which was connected to the body with rubber bushings. This reduced vibrations and improved ride comfort.
The Volkswagen 1500 Limousine, model year 1962, was introduced in August 1961. The Type 31 featured:
1,493 cm³, 4-cylinder boxer engine
45 hp at 3,800 rpm
Single carburetor
Front and rear luggage compartments, both accessible from the outside
