UK Germanlook 1303 for sale

Type 4 engine, Porsche brakes, many top-spec custom parts

It is with regret that I have to sell this car. This is the first car I ever owned. It went through various modifications before getting a type 4 engine built by me, and a full nut and bolt rebuild a few years ago. Its based on its excellent original chassis which has only had the battery tray replaced. The body was profesionally painted by a local body shop. If your looking for a very quick, and superb handling German Look beetle, this is the one for you. Its handling is finely tuned with adjustable struts, front and rear suspension bracing, and front mounted battery, resulting in a 55/45 weight distribution. The large Porsche rims fit neatly under the stock size arches due to perfect offsets. The snug seats, race harnesses, sequential style shifter and Porsche steering wheel make it a very comfortable and engaging ride.
