The Volkswagen Beetle is one of the most recognisable automotive icons in history and this one, could be yours. With an estimated 21.5 million built between 1938 and when production finally finished in 2003, it is one of the most produced cars ever and with that, a car which nearly everyone has a story with.

Powered by an aircooled 1.3-litre flat-four engine, our 1975 Volkswagen Beetle 1303 is what is known as a ‘super beetle’. The 1302 and 1303 models featured independent front suspension with the introduction of McPherson struts and allowed the Beetle to move along with the times and give it, at the time, a more modern feel with this the whole front of the car was redesigned and restyled to incorporate its wider track width with a more rounded bonnet, wings and curved windscreen.

With stunning paintwork and a simple ‘no frills’ interior, this is a classic that is always there purely for the simple joy of being driven.

Elegant in its simplicity, our 1975 VW 1303 has a history file dating back to the early 1990’s but more on what has been done on the car can be seen here.
