SUMMARY

This Volkswagen Beetle and modified trailer are the property of, and directly on offer from Jamie Oliver MBE, offering a great opportunity with celebrity ownership.

DESCRIPTION

  • 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
