Recently built nice, traditional VW Beach Buggy, great economical fun motoring.

Body: Jas long wheelbase body shell in french blue gel-coat fibreglass with retro style stripes, body moulded about three years ago (not an old relic dragged out of a field). No hood, it's been a strictly dry weather fun car but any coach or boat trimmer could easily make one if desired. Fully adjustable seats, 4 point rally type harness seat belts.  http://www.beachbuggies.co.uk/

Chassis: 1972 VW Beetle, rebuilt with new floors, new front and rear shock absorbers, new brake shoes, cylinders, pipes and hoses etc.

Engine: VW Beetle 1300 twin port engine with twin choke carburettor and dual cannon exhausts, runs well, good oil pressure etc.

Wheels & Tyres: Classic 'big and little' American slot mag wheels with good tyres.

Legal Stuff: The car has been inspected by DVLA/VOSA and is correctly registered on the V5C/logbook. Engine and chassis numbers match the logbook. The car has just passed its MOT and is tax-exempt. Insurance is cheap, typically in the region of £100 with some of the specialist companies.

The car is on the Wirral, postcode CH61, M53 junction 3 if you want to come and have a look.

Please phone or text any enquiries to David: 07549 051466

I only really built it to get rid of all the parts that I was sick of falling over. I was going to run it for a year but I've lost my storage space/lock up now and the Manx is out in the open, so its a choice between the two really.

Shame as it drives and handles really well and looks good. Sure, it's not show detailed, it's a good honest (mainly VW) Buggy though and will serve someone well.
