Description
Beautiful mid 70s Super Beetle. Slightly longer with the curved windscreen and ‘modern’ dashboard makes for more space in the cabin. Since owning ‘Greta’ I’ve replaced distributor with electronic points and petronix coil so runs like or better than new. Reset and improved the twin carbs. New headlights, back bumper rubber. Hood seals, inner door cards, new fuel lines, new sill strengtheners, new windscreen fan, Porsche steering wheel. Fitted refurbished mark II golf seats that are super comfortable for our longer journeys, the original seats are available if desired or needed. I have used and maintained as a daily driver and remain in use until sold. Not show or mint but really lovely. Originally from Berlin but imported to uk and lived in London for many years. Ended up in Sheffield and was for a time a wedding car. Was used as my son’s wedding car too! Maintained by Quayside Motors VW specialists in Cattesdown Plymouth - highly recommended- who have looked after the car like it was their own. Easy to drive, buzzes along happily at 60, 28 mpg average, no tax needed, no mot needed, ulez free, easy gear change, excellent gear box, Blaupunkt dab radio with blue tooth. Cheap to insure and maintain with so many companies supplying spares. Comfortable and quiet if you don’t rag it but quite quick if you do. Always gets noticed and makes peeps smile especially when the tops down. Driven down through France and loved the French N roads.
