Why thank you maaam
Do I gather there aren't too many Ghias in Os?
I'll post some more of the inside. It was shocking when I got it and I'm recustomising it. My mate has a '61 one I'll post that
too when I get a photo...

thanks guys
Ghia: it's a 74L bug with the curved windscreen... nice looking model, a bit more modern - it has a dashboard! will lower it soon though, unless
a buyer comes through first.
Jen: it's a wierd colour during the day, it's like a creamy metallic white, but if you walk around it (even during the day) you can see a
slight tinge of blue/purple on the curves, looks real sleek 
then at night it's more of a metallic white, and the blue and purple is really alot more noticeable looks really cool under lights.. but it comes up best in the sydney tunnels (lotsa lights overhead) or in a
carpark (again with lights over head) realy nice looking car, just needs more TLC - i need to rob a bank i think.

Let me know when you robbing that bank - I'll drive the car for a 30/70 split.
Sweeeeeeet look Ghia, Ghia! Would love to surprise the wife with a cab of one of these but she can do without the shock it would do to our budget.
Very smick though - funny how when I look at it it all I see is green - what does that mean?
There is a nice fuel injected one in Newcastle but I have only seen it once and glimpsed it a couple of time as its a Sunday car only.

Price of them is depressed here at the moment. While the Uk is bus mad the price of cars is low. Bugs are given away unless they are very old or well
customised. The Ghia was ony £1800 (UK Sterling) but yes any problems with the body work are very costly. But it's fully insured etc.
I confess it is a fair weather / Sunday car. We use the NB isn the background as a daily drive. But I might sell that soon and get something older.
