This 1.5-litre Volkswagen beach buggy was repainted last summer (its original colour was orange) and its interior was also re-trimmed.
The vendor purchased it from a previous owner on the Isle of Wight in 2016 and tells us that since then it has received an annual inspection and service by Blakeney Garage.
Unfortunately, no receipts survive, and the vendor has been unable to locate the documentation that came with the car at purchase.
However, the V5C is present, together with spare keys.
The odometer shows 93,448 miles, and the car was first registered on 25th July 1963.
