Description
This lot will be auctioned via Classic Car Auctions, The Classic Car Sale at Stoneleigh Park 2024 on Saturday the 28th of September, Stoneleigh Park, Warwickshire, CV8 2LG.
A unique retail package on offer from the private Collection of Jamie Oliver - celebrity chef, restaurateur, author and TV personality
Based on a 1967 1500cc Karmann-built Type 1 Convertible finished in Lotus White (cream)
The bespoke trailer is in fact the back half of a very similar vehicle modified to take an ice-cream fridge and condenser and designed to offer a platform for dispensing ice cream at events and private parties
The car was imported into the UK in May 2013 and has had three keepers during that time, the current being Jamie
Good history file with details of lots of work and ongoing maintenance, invoices etc.
As a smart example of the sought after Karmann convertibles, this drop-top Beetle is appealing in its own right, naturally enhanced by its celebrity provenance, however the addition of the ice cream trailer offering a potential business opportunity makes this unique package rather special
