About this car

The 1302 S was the top Beetle of its day, pairing the 1600cc flat-four with the Super Beetle's MacPherson strut front axle. That redesign also gave a much larger front luggage compartment, with the spare wheel fitted flush. This one is a matching-numbers car with front disc brakes and a dual-circuit system.

It was first registered on 1 October 1971 by the main dealer Pooles of Portsmouth, and has had only two keepers since its first owner, who held it until 1996. It is finished in Clementine (L20D) with optional high-back black leatherette seats. It is a regular concours entrant and is described as the 2026 class winner at the Stanford Hall VW Show. Period accessories include Hella lamps, a Grundig radio and Kamei luggage trays.

It shows 39,655 miles. Two history files hold handbooks, service records, MOTs, show scoresheets and invoices for NOS parts. The page states the car was last serviced in October 2026 and has an MOT to October 2027. It is also HPI clear.
