Fantastic oppertunity to buy a freshly restored Trabant Kubel in the UK.

Has 12 Months MOT and 6 Months TAX. ready to drive away! No advisories on the MOT.

ONE OFF REDUCTION TO ONLY £4500. YOU WILL NOT FIND ONE IN THIS CONDITION FOR THIS PRICE IN THE WORLD!

If it doesn't sell for this I will be keeping it. it stands me more.

 Please no silly offers. Please bear in mind the asking price is a very fair market value of this. If you are genuinely interested but can't make up your mind. come and have a look before bidding and I'll show you around it and take you for a spin.

I have just got back from Germany and one in similar condition over there is €7000+. then you would need to ship it over. tinker. MOT. register and TAX.

It's a 1983. so 30 years old.   £150 fully comp insurance. with agreed valuation of £10. 00.

IT RUNS AND DRIVES ABSOULUTLY FANTASTIC. IT RUNS BETTER THAN ANY TRABANT I'VE OWNED.

Sorry to genuine ebayers. if you have sold anything on here recently you will know where I am coming from. This is a factory Kubel that has just been fully and professionally stripped and painted this year. Be careful when buying a Kubel that its not fitted with a replacement shell as a lot do.

The way you can tell is the VIN will have an E before the numbers. this means Ersatz (Translated means replaced/REPLACEMENT). This seriously effects their collectibility. It was totally stripped to allow painting and reassembled with any parts that needed replacing replaced along the way.

This Kubel offered here is a factory Kubel and the VIN and chassis number confirms this.

DO NO TURN UP AND PICK FAULT. SOLD AS SEEN TRIED TESTED AND APPROVED EVEN IF YOU HAVE VIEWED OR NOT.

This is a lot of car for the money. just think how much it would cost to buy a restored one in NVA spec from Germany. ship it over here an then go to hassle of registering etc. This has been totally stripped. painted an reassembled with anything replaced or refurbished that has needed it along the way.

I may have missed things good or bad. if I notice any either way I will update the auction.
