SUMMARY
One of the very last manufactured, a fine right-hand drive example of a globally recognised icon with the equivalent of just 15,000 miles from new.
DESCRIPTION
- First registered in 2007, this Mexican-built, right-hand drive Beetle would have been one of the last ever manufactured under licence
- Presented in lovely condition and indicating just 22,686km (14,096 miles), mostly dry stored in a private underground car park in London
- Benefitting from a more modern and powerful 1,598cc engine, these final Beetles are a very useable and stylish classic car
- Beautifully finished in glorious Battleship Grey which really suits the period profile and matching charcoal cloth seats
- The V5C shows three previous keepers, all in the same family since the car was imported from Mexico
- Supplied with a history file containing invoices and receipts for maintenance over the years, the current V5C and will have a new MOT just before the sale
