Vehicle specification: Year: 1973. Make: Volkswagen. Model: Beetle 1300. Colour: Red. Odometer: 95,800 miles. Engine size: 1300cc. Seller type: Private. Location: Kent, UK. We are reluctantly parting with our beloved Otto, a beautifully restored and well-cared-for Red 1973 VW Beetle 1300. First registered in October 1973, we are Otto’s sixth owners and have enjoyed six years of fun days out and classic car shows with him. He’s a real head-turner, attracting attention and bringing smiles wherever he goes. Due to new business commitments, it’s time for someone else to enjoy him as much as we have. Registered as a historic vehicle – tax and MoT exempt. Highlights: Comprehensive professional restoration in 2004, retaining original features. Rust-free body with Waxoyl protection (re-treated in later years). Mechanically sorted with regular servicing and brake overhauls. Original RHD, flat screen, metal dash – sought-after UK spec. Extensive history file from 2004 to present. Maintenance overview: 2004 – full body strip-down, new heater channels, repair panels, wings, bonnet, valance, seals, interior replacement, bare-metal respray, Waxoyl underside. Major mechanical refresh including ball joints, brakes, hoses, and service. 2017 – MoT, starter motor, oil change. Ongoing – carburettor replacement and tune, ignition barrel, steering adjustment, brake overhaul, wheel bearing repack, rear seat belts fitted, radio and washer repairs. Honest points to note: slow puncture front passenger tyre. Small tear in driver’s seat upholstery. Passenger door card unclipped at corner. Corner of stereo faceplate broken (cosmetic). Driver’s heater flap disconnected (can be reconnected). Light patina/rust on bumpers – adds character. A rare opportunity to own a rust-free, UK-spec Beetle with a comprehensive restoration and documented history. Ready to enjoy for shows, weekend drives, or as a cherished classic.
