EXCEPTIONAL FUNCTIONALITY
Only travelled 38000 km.
Barry the “Love Bug” Beetle has been like a member of the family since 1999 and it is with a heavy heart that we are finally selling him. Bodywork was lovingly restored by Luis in 2014 - a true VW specialist and brilliant craftsman. The interior was then given the star treatment by Victor Gomes and to complete the overhaul Barry got a new 1600cc engine.
A full history of restoration items, service and repairs is available. A Panasonic Bluetooth music system and speakers on back shelf is installed and a sunroof to maximize airflow on those summer days. Comes with 4 original tyres and hubcaps. Registration valid till June 2026. It runs like a dream and turns heads where ever he goes. Be prepared to wave at everyone as you drive him around. A fun vehicle with plenty of character. Serious buyers only - no tyre kickers.
