    [For Sale: Car] Bargains on DoneDeal

    Thats true, but even rusty bags of shite are going for silly money, once it has a vw badge on it. Asking price and what it sells for are 2 totally different things as you know. But as you say a rusty base covered up with either metal of fibreglass is still a rusty base. I wonder how many wizards...

    Personally, Irish built or otherwise is all the same to me, a car, is a car , is a car. Aircooled of course. Its only a number plate we are talking about after all. Preferably I would be keener on a german built.

    Although in fairness type 3 variants resto's seem to get a bit of an audience.:)

    [For Sale: Car] Bargains on DoneDeal

    Started off at 11000 a few weeks ago so thats a fair drop in price, not my cup of tea though. Type 3 's are not as popular as beetles, even tho they are rarer and a more comfortable drive. And not everyone is prepared to restore one. I tried for months to sell my white one before the resto, even...

    Best buy now then, as they are only increasing in price, and they are becoming more rare, no matter what it is.

    Even for a crispy one its not too bad, so solid would be a major bonus, and from the pics its pretty straight looking.

    If you do your own resto work on a beetle, type3,bus ect, whatever it is, dont add up the cost of parts even before any work.............especially in front of the other half. Otherwise you would either faint at the cost, or the other half would kill you. A set of decent rims and wheels will...

    Get Insured with Eircooled's Insurance Partner - First Ireland

    Yeah thats true, but I thought someone on here might be driving an LT camper. I contacted them but waiting for a reply, and they are not too fast on answering their e mails. I saw an LT on the eireball run the weekend, so I should have asked the driver. I think its 20 year classics for First...

    Looks decent enough from what you can see in the photos. But type 3's are a hard sell for some reason. In Ireland there are now 4 type 's up for sale, and have been for a while. But they are a great classic.

    Of course it could be a 66 logbook, floor pan and chassis, if they were changed as the number has to go with the chassis like my own.

    11k for the Fastback van is optimistic, but it makes me smile with my fasty, not that I would sell it.
