AI Listing Summary

This 1963 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia is a sought-after UK-supplied, right-hand drive example in an attractive metallic grey with a light grey interior.

The car is described as being presented to a high standard, with excellent bodywork, bright chrome trim, and a beautifully maintained interior. It has been enjoyed exclusively as a fair-weather classic, driven only between April and October and never intentionally used in wet weather. The engine bay is clean and well-presented.

This suggests a near-perfect condition with only very minor signs of use that are not noticeable without close inspection.
