The Attractions
We always recommend with great conviction to all enthusiasts the purchase of a Beetle, whether it is their first experience with a classic car or more experienced collectors. These cars are easy to maintain, pleasant to drive and well built, and spare parts are always available.
This 1969 example is in excellent shape, having received a thorough restoration. The body has been completely repainted, the engine was rebuilt in 2015 and the interior was renewed in 2024. As can be seen in the photo gallery, this Beetle presents itself impeccably in all respects, and the overhaul was recently renewed.
