There are few automotive icons that have been produced in numbers of tens of millions. One of those is the Volkswagen Beetle, which sold a fantastic 21,529,464 during its lifetime from 1938 to 2003. That’s more than the population of some countries! One of the most renowned automobiles, the Beetle reshaped economical and fuss-free motoring with its thrifty and simple powertrain, and ability to carry a family comfortably for long distances. For added chops, it was developed by none other than Ferdinand Porsche, who’s name adorns one of the premier sports car makers in the world. This 1971 Volkswagen Super Beetle is a lovely example of a much-adored car, and the seller states that it gets smiles and thumbs up from everyone! With a reported 85,267 miles, it’s looking for a new owner, and comes with the owner’s manual included in the sale.
The Beetle’s iconic silhouette didn’t change between 1938 and 2003, but several design refinements were made, some on a yearly basis. This Beetle bears a beautiful baby blue paintwork that is fitting for such a happy car. The seller reports a repaint, but is unsure of when, and also discloses that the left hand side tail lamp is inoperative, so that will need attention. All chrome and badging appear to be in good condition, as do the shiny hubcaps on the steel wheels which wear radial tires that were newly installed in 2016. The interior is in contrasting gray, and seats four occupants. It’s said to be a new interior installed in 2016, with the headliner replaced in 2018. You don’t get a lot of distractions in a Beetle; this one sports a single circular gauge housing the speedometer and fuel meter, and a push-button radio in the center of the dash, plus a few buttons for functions such as lights. The windows are wind-up units. The trunk is at the front, making it a frunk of sorts.
The Beetle has always been powered by an air-cooled flat-four gasoline engine that emits a distinctive purr. It’s not a powerhouse motor, but a reliable and dependable partner. This 1971 Volkswagen Super Beetle packs a 1.6L flat-four which is a donor engine that replaced the original at some point in this car’s history. The rear-mounted engine, rated at 60hp when new sends drive to the rear wheels via a Volkswagen Autostick three-speed automatic transmission. The rear axle and CV joints were replaced with new ones in 2016, and the gas tank and vents saw replacement in 2021, making this Beetle ready for the next fifty years.
This 1978 Volkswagen Super Beetle Convertible captures the carefree spirit of the late ’70s in one of the most beloved automotive icons ever produced. As one of the final German-built Beetles before production shifted to Mexico, it represents the culmination of nearly four decades of engineering refinement. Finished in a freshly repainted baby blue, this Super Beetle exudes timeless charm and simplicity while offering a driving experience rooted in classic motoring fun. Its cheerful color and open-top design make it a standout choice for collectors and enthusiasts who value authenticity, character, and nostalgic appeal.
Definitely one of the most influential cars of all time, the Volkswagen Beetle sold over 21.5 million units in a production run spanning seven decades! Introduced in 1938 as a way to mobilize the ordinary German family, the Beetle soon started accomplishing this goal all over the world! It was a symbol of free culture during the Sixties, and to this day, remains one of the best starter classic cars in the world. Its simplistic mechanicals, oodles of charm and easy driving experience make it perfect for anyone who wants to try out classic cars. That’s why this 1974 Volkswagen Super Beetle is not likely to stay available for long. With under 56,000 miles on the clock, you’d better act fast to secure this Portland-based Bug if it catches your fancy.
The Volkswagen Beetle was truly the people’s car and its production numbers was a clear sign of that.

Purists best remember the Volkswagen Transporter as the Type 2 microbus or kombi. But Volkswagen has made several generations since then. The T4 or fourth generation was produced between 1995 and 2004, and of course, camper variants were popular too. That’s what we have here for grabs in Laguna Beach, California, a 2003 Volkswagen Transporter T4 EuroVan with 188,000 miles on the clock. This fine camper van comes with a pop-up top, the owner’s manual and a smooth six-cylinder engine driving its rear wheels. So if you’re a fan of road trips where you take your house with you, this van is the ideal companion.
The 70s were all about peace, love, and good times. One manufacturer who perfectly captured the times through mechanical symphony was none other than Volkswagen. A quick trip down memory lane and the range of machines leaving factory floors, which included the legendary Beetle and Karmann ghia gave its custodians the chance to explore peace and love with every drive out. Present today is the latter, and a great example of it as well. Hailing from Casper, Wyoming, this 1974 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia is a machine far from the expensive classic-car life portrayed; it is simple motoring that provides smiles per gallon and looks great doing so.
This 1975 Volkswagen Type 2 23-window Samba Deluxe Transporter represents a highly customized interpretation of the iconic microbus, combining classic design language with modern comfort and entertainment-oriented enhancements. Configured in a 23-window Samba-style layout and imported from Brazil, this example reflects the extended global production legacy of the Type 2 platform. With approximately 13,048 miles shown since conversion, rear-wheel drive, and adjustable suspension, this vehicle is positioned primarily as a lifestyle-oriented cruiser rather than a utility-focused transporter.
