I hope someone on here buys this. So tempted to bid but know that it would be hard to drive with 2 broken legs.:P
Minister of finance would arrange that little accident I think

Ages ago and I mean ages ago when i new nothing about VW,s I had a look over this verrry same car with my the girlfriend who thought having one would be cool. Can't remeber to much other than the guy was a bit of a jerk. He said that lots of the car was original but it looked a bit shabby to me and that was over 10 years ago. The asking price was a mear $35 000.
Id say that $15000 is over priced unless some work has been done.

How is that any different to any other used car salesman?
I'd say this guy is just a wholesale seller and actually has no idea about specifics.
Based on the age of this car I'd doubt very much it's a platinum either.
And immaculate? It looks mouldy to me.
Sold for $16,100. Bargain IMHO.
The kits for speedsters are pretty expensive. Ive had a look and it was 24k for just the fibreglass body (nothing else) which was not painted or fitted with anything, just the absolute shell. And this was an aussie supplier.
I have found cheap ones else where over the internet, but they are from US and mexico, and i doubt it would comply to our aussie road regulations/design rules. NZ had one as well, but they were the same suppliers as that aussie manufacturer that i mentioned, and are expensive too (in my opinion for just a plain kit).
You can get a fully constructed kit ready for bolt to the chassis and just drive out for 40k ($39,900 anyways).
So for 15k for a fully constructed kit replica is quite cheap in my opinion. 😀

ooh yeah. have wanted one since i was about 12. missed out on a few over the years. this time i thought i would try different as it was suggested it was advertised elsewhere. but maybe i shoulda jsut went for it. ah well.
gotta say teh bloke seemed sincere. he had a fair bit of interest from all ovr the place, and said to me from teh outset that the most would win.
good luck i suppose to the bloke who got it.
