The Volkswagen Beetle which was built from 1938 to 2003 is the most famous Volkswagen, the most famous German car, and in general one of the most famous cars ever.

The early split-window Beetle was found to have too small a rear window and so, to increase safety, the rear window was made 50% larger. The window was given an oval shape, marking the birth of the oval Beetle. In Germany they affectionately call it Ovali. The engine went from 25 to 30 HP, and the hydraulic brakes and throttle were introduced.

The Beetle has a well running engine with a nice sound. The car shifts smoothly through all gears and it brakes properly. The whitewall tyres give an accurate look from that period with the L370 Nile Beige paint (in very good condition). The original interior is in good condition but it has been used for 65 years. It has not been renewed on purpose in order to keep the car's authentic look.
