Kickdown's Take

by Moritz Helbich

This 1973 VW 1303 Beetle Convertible has been extensively restored and is in exceptionally well-maintained condition. The body, mechanical components, electrical system, and interior have been completely refurbished, and the 44 PS boxer engine runs flawlessly following its overhaul. The black exterior complements the beige faux leather interior beautifully, and there are no known signs of rust. With a valid TÜV inspection and an “H” license plate, this Beetle is ready to drive right away and is ideal for convertible enthusiasts looking for a reliable and lovingly restored classic.
