The tale of the Volkswagen Beetle unfolds as a narrative of inspiration, notwithstanding its association with a less desirable historical figure. Conceived by Adolf Hitler and crafted into reality by Ferdinand Porsche, the Beetle emerged as an embodiment of affordable and reliable motoring for the German public. Porsche, renowned for sports cars and SUVs today, bestowed the Beetle with iconic lines, a simple air-cooled engine, and a practical interior – a car for the masses. With over 21 million units sold until its 2003 farewell, the Beetle underwent over a thousand improvements during its enduring production, starting from the original 1938 design. In 1948, Wilhelm Karmann transformed a VW Beetle sedan into a convertible, birthing the Beetle Cabriolet, later produced by Karmann in Osnabrück. Available today is a unique Super Beetle, the 1978 Volkswagen Super Beetle Karmann Cabriolet Champagne Edition II, boasting mainly original features and a modest 76,000 miles on its journey.
The resplendent 1978 Volkswagen Super Beetle Karmann Edition stands draped in a pristine Ancona Blue painted exterior with a white convertible top, a departure from the typical Beetle sedan configuration. Despite the transformation, this Beetle comfortably accommodates four adults, offering them the delightful experience of open-air motoring. Embracing its classic identity, the car features the iconic Beetle head and tail lamps, whitewall tires, steel wheels, side step rocker panels, and an abundance of charismatic charm. This practical classic extends an invitation for everyday drives, encapsulating the essence of timeless motoring. Step into the interior of this 1978 Volkswagen Super Beetle Karmann Edition to encounter a clean white ambiance, providing seating for four individuals. The mainly original interior exudes authenticity, with the trunk receiving a touch of new carpeting. Positioned at the front, the trunk aligns with the Beetle's distinctive design. Inside the cabin, a four-spoke steering wheel, wood-trimmed dash, push-button radio, and essential switches for ancillaries epitomize the Beetle's commitment to refreshingly Spartan motoring, minimizing distractions for an immersive driving experience.
Nestled in the rear of the 1978 Volkswagen Super Beetle Karmann Edition is a harmoniously tuned 1585cc flat-four engine with Bosch L-Jetronic Fuel Injection. Its air-cooled melody resonates through the characteristic dual exhaust, providing a delightful soundtrack to your drive. Power is channeled to the rear wheels through a 4-Speed manual transmission, allowing enthusiasts to relish the engine's character, forgiving its modest power output. Drum brakes on all four wheels, more than sufficient for this relatively lightweight car, complete the dynamic package, ensuring a harmonious balance between performance and driving pleasure.
The '70s and Volkswagen were a match made in heaven. Turning back the clock and the cars that left the factory floors were future classics. Despite the Beetle's mass production, these examples are highly sought after in the collectors market today. With any '70s Volkswagen, picking a suitable machine makes all the difference. And if you're a Beetle aficionado, you likely already have the ideal trim, powertrain, and model year picked out on your wishlist. Present today is this lovely 1972 Volkswagen Super Beetle; this classic beauty is reported to be a one-owner example with all its original paperwork and is a factory-clean example geared to liven up your weekend drives with peace, love, and happiness.
The Volkswagen Beetle started life as a people’s car and has since become beloved by virtually all walks of life. Whether it’s an early "split window" in pristine condition or a radically modified rat rod, there are many dedicated devotees that come with an appreciation of the Bug’s way of life. One of the advantages of the VW Beetle platform is that it was available in a variety of body styles. In addition to the traditional sedan, there have been many different versions that share its underpinnings, including Variant models, wagons, and this: one of the last years that a convertible was offered from the factory. This 1978 Volkswagen Super Beetle Convertible is offered for sale with a 1.6-liter engine and 97,000 miles reported on the odometer.

The Volkswagen Beetle, one of the most iconic cars in automotive history, is recognized for its distinctive shape and back story. It was created by the same engineer who founded Porsche, Ferdinand Porsche. The Volkswagen Beetle in itself is a historical figure, as it symbolized a shift from cars being a privilege for the wealthy to a dream that everyone could fulfill. Therefore, buying a Beetle is not just about owning a classic car but also about owning a piece of world history with countless stories to be told. This particular 1979 air-cooled boxer four-cylinder German we have today has been meticulously restored back to life with a small twist: a turbocharger. With just 55,500 miles reported, this 1979 Volkswagen Beetle is ready to take you on some exciting expeditions.
The Volkswagen Kombi, Transporter, Camper, Microbus or T2 is a well-known light commercial vehicle. Introduced in 1949, it used the Beetle’s powertrain, but installed it within a larger and longer body that could be had in many styles. These included panel vans, pickup trucks, passenger microbuses, ice cream vans, and campers. In the Sixties, the model really took off, with the movement of peace and love. Many microbuses were converted into campers, and many more continue to receive this treatment even in the current era. However, if you want to buy a VW Kombi that’s already received the conversion, check out this 1995 Volkswagen EuroVan Camper that we’re selling with only 45,500 miles on the clock. Having undergone a full restoration, the vehicle comes with a comfortable and practical interior, two keys, and infinite amounts of charm and nostalgia.

The 1966 Ford Mustang Convertible is a timeless classic that will forever dazzle this world with its legendary design and rich history. The success of this first generation Mustang is also the reason why the Chevrolet Camaro, Pontiac Firebird and Dodge Challenger were brought to life; these were truly the golden days of the Ford Mustang, asserting itself as the main player in the new “pony” car market. With only a total of 72,119 convertible units produced in 1966, it makes this model quite rare compared to the coupe and fastback models. The iconic pony's interior makes this particular example even more rare, with embossed running horses on the seatbacks, a five-gauge instrument cluster, and deluxe door panels with wood-grain accents. Clocking a total of just 33,000 miles on the odometer, this 1966 Ford Mustang is the perfect machine to cruise around with the convertible top down.

Packing a relatively light 61,000 miles on the odometer, this car is said to have been fully restored. Hence, it’s basically a turn-key classic that you can enjoy from the very start of your ownership journey.
