You are of course right Rob. I don't like ads with 'offers' either and I never usually post them. Price is £4250 as it stands.

That's a lot of car for little money. If any of those who offered under £1k are reading this...I suggest they go and find one a little better...for just over £1k.:roll:

It certainly looks a decent car, just what do some folk want?

Looks as though the headliner is replaced though?
1956 VW Beetle, 1962 Morris Minor, 1968 VW Beetle (Old Blue), 1972 Morris Mini, 2005 MGTF

Blue, blue, Electric Blue, that's the colour of Old Blue!

Original headliner.

The colour appears more like that of the earlier cars, looks the same as Jon's oval that has it original liner. I'm sure that 1958 - 1961 cars were more of a light to mid grey. The condition looks too good for 50+ years old to me.

You're partly correct on headliner colour. The shade depended on the body colour. For instance a 1959 Fjord Blue car is listed as having a light grey headliner, whilst a 1959 Garnet Red car (as Rich's)is listed as having a light beige headliner. These two headliner colours were also available in 1956, once again depending on body colour.

I've owned 30+ 1958-64 original Beetles. Believe me, the headliner is original.

If that is so it is in amazing condition and I stand corrected. What's it like below the windows though?

That's an incredible price for that car. Hope it goes to the right new owner.
