1972 Karmann Ghia

Historic Vehicle - Tax free

MOT until NOVEMBER 2013

UK CAR - Right Hand Drive

Later 1600 engine. so plenty of power.

Lowered ‘California' look



Up for sale is my much loved Ghia - she's is such a hoot to drive and is such a head turner - I've had a fantastic summer driving her around!  She's fully road legal and is mechanically sound.   She starts. runs and stops with no problems.   The later 1600 engine means she keeps up with modern traffic to. happily cruises on the motorway at a normal speed and darts around town making a fantastic throaty noise through her quad exhausts - I love her!


Her body work is generally good. Solid with no holes etc - She has of course had a lot of money spent on her in the past. receipts for:

N/S and O/s Body mounts welding and under-seal

New Washer Pump

Welding to front frame heads

New felxy pipes at the back

New track rod ends

New heat exchanger

Loads of other bits


In the not too distant past she has been sprayed from Yellow to Red.   The red I think really suits the car. however the job was not done very well which lets the car down. My plan was to. over the winter rub it down and prepare it to the do a good respray - however Ive moved house and no longer have any storage for her. so its time for her to move on to someone with the space and time to give her the correct amount of love to keep her going.  


She will make a fantastic rolling restoration project for someone. being tax free she is very cheap to run and insure.



It really very hard to describe a car like this here. so please email any questions. or give me a bell and arrange to come down and view her.
