I took this in part exchange against my 64 beetle with my brother Paul, i've given it 4 weeks to see how I liked using it daily and it drives really well but I just prefer rhd, so i'm looking for an early beetle or type 3 and some cash my way so the bay will have to make way, Col.

I'm willing to take offers on the bus, although i could be tempted in a part ex with an early bug (pre 67) early ghia (pre 70) or an early type 3 (pre 70) or WHY? cheers Col.

that bug you want for p/x has to be RHD to probably? i have a ´62 LHD bug and i was looking for a bus like yours...

I LOVE this bus.... there's nothing like a bit of OG 'scarring' to get the ol' VW blood pumping!

Good luck mate... and also with joining the 'Early Ghia' ranks PERHAPS.....
