Yeah man, I do like that size car.... From an era before nCap I suppose.. If I ever get a big wad of dough (lottery only chance so far, but interesting .net job came up today so never know) I want one, even if its juist a 1 litre run-around. VW that age will be rust-proof I presume, and built like its bulletproof as usual, like my g40 but using 1/4 of the fuel I think is the aim. When I stopped driving petrol was 85p a litre, and working 25miles away (including dinner-time blast arouind a50) I was using £20 petrol a day. What I'll need is a runaround to use, and have my baby for one-off blasts, insure her for weekend or something (£1900/yr last insurance was on Q plated body, probably less now its genuine J plate body again.)
Looks ideal, small, reliable and nice to fix, and an absolutely beutiful shape... Strangely I think of the sunbeam when I see them, similar type angles, lovely.!
