"The car is in good working order and has only driven 167,000 km since new. A few small touch ups and blisters in the paint around the bonnet, it drives well and barely used in the last 10 years."

Description

Nice 1303S and last year’s model in a well-kept condition and runs and drives well. Current owner has had the car for 9 years and it has an approved inspection/MOT. Nice bodywork with a few paint touch ups and little blisters at the front under the paint due to stone chips (pictures). The rear bumper has blisters in the chrome and a small hole.
Whole and nice under body and wings, it’s been repainted and with new wings was probably done sometime in the 1990s by the first owner who had the car until 2005. The car looks nice but the paint needs polished to become really shiny.
Inside the car has original carpets, door cards, dashboard, steering wheel and headliner looks great and seat have been reupholstered
In the trunk, the car is exceptionally good, no rust under the spare wheel or on strut mounts. The engine compartment also looks good it’s a very well kept and nice example.

Facts about the model

VW 1303 och särskilt då i "S" utförande var toppmodellen i VW-bubblans utveckling under 40 år. Modellen kom 1973 med välvd framruta, skivbromsar och större baklampor samt 1600 motor på 50 Hkr. Det byggdes 25 miljoner bubblor och 1303 var den finaste och sista tysk-byggda bubblan. Upphörde 1975, då VW Golf tog över som volymbil, efter 30 år som storsäljare. De enklare 1200 och 1300-modellerna av bubblan fortsatte att byggas i Brasilien och Mexico i många år till (fram till 1996 resp 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.
  • ATTENTION: Many of these cars are sold without valid Swedish registration documents, as spare parts.
