About this car

The Volkswagen XL1 was the production result of a decade-long effort to build a car that used one litre of fuel per 100km. It has a carbon-fibre monocoque, enclosed rear wheels, camera mirrors and a 0.189 drag coefficient. Its 800cc two-cylinder diesel and 27 bhp electric motor give 68 bhp through a seven-speed DSG, with around 31 miles of electric-only range.

This UK-supplied car is number 148 of 200 and was first registered in 2015. It is finished in Reflex Silver Metallic with a Titanium Black Alcantara interior and has covered 12,482 miles. It was shown at more than 150 events in its first ownership and kept under protective covers.

Every service has been carried out at Volkswagen's Milton Keynes Technical Centre, the latest in March 2026 at 12,399 miles. The history file includes the original purchase agreement, factory charger, battery conditioner, toolkit, brochure, a numbered framed print and the metal VW history folder.
