Auto Type 3 Availability?
vwkj87 - May 1st, 2011 at 11:54 PM

My girl is considering a Type 3. She especially wants a notchback but only drives auto, and won't learn manual.

I keep telling her an auto fastback might popup maybe, but I think a notch is near impossible right?

Any thoughts or info?

I have seen a few come up on carsales before. So the do exist but are more rare.

yep the Autos drive nice

however the car will have rust so you may have to do repairs
