Hey, Ive been looking at beetles to buy and Im wondering if anyone knows anything about this beetle on ebay. The link is http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7130545968&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT and its situated in Victoria somewhere. Is it a good one? Im looking for it to be my first car :-)

thats quite the sporty one. but just remember, a car like that will only be sold for that price for a reason. ie it cant be registered because of a fault some where. also if you're looking in other states, transport cost is high and reliability is low.

good luck with the hunt!

I think it will sell for a bit higher than its at now, last week it was on there for $3000 but didnt sell. How much is it worth?

for 2k it is a good buy

IF it is a real Golde roof then that is worth $600 alone - so IF it is a original rag registered body it is a good buy.

I guess it all depends if the motor is ok and there is any rust and the suspension aint shagged and the electrics havent been home re-wired for the 12 volt conversion

yeah - i saw it as well.

I reckon it would be a good basis for a project.
Would it make a good first that is a regular driver staight off

Its on a later model floor pan.
Could have lots of hidden extras.
Would be best to view this car I think.
