Technical data
Condition
-
Mechanical condition
Starts easily and runs well. During a gentle drive in a residential area, the clutch, shifting, steering, brakes, and other mechanics functioned flawlessly. The undercarriage has not been inspected on a lift but appears to be in good condition. No comments from the vehicle inspection station.
-
Interior condition
Seats, door panels, dashboard, carpets, etc., are in excellent original condition, with only minor cracks and some slight wear. Extra rubber mats are included. The headliner is in good condition with some slight sagging at the C-pillar and behind the backrest. Everything appears to function as intended.
-
Exterior condition
The pastel white paint appears to be largely original. The stone guard on the left rear fender is missing, and the fender may have been repaired some time ago. There is mild wear from use, including paint chipping, some scratches, and small “bubbles” along the trim between the fenders and the body at the lower edges. Otherwise, the vehicle has aged gracefully. Glass, chrome, rubber, and lighting details are all in similar condition. It has Minilite-style wheels and Hankook tires, also in good condition. The engine and trunk areas are in good condition.
-
General condition
A model is often said to be at its best towards the end of its production run. Here, with roots in the 1930s but featuring relatively modern and upgraded technology and safety from the 1970s, the combination of its fine condition, history, and low mileage makes it a truly authentic and usable classic and enthusiast vehicle.

Facts about the model
By 1973, the 1303S received another upgrade, including a completely new dashboard and a panoramic windshield. Externally, it featured larger rear lights and a gas cap with “finger grips.”
This was the last “Beetle” built in Germany from 1973 to 1975 (the Cabriolet model continued to be produced until 1978). Today, it is appreciated as the most spirited, safe, and comfortable Beetle.
