Volkswagen Buggy Meyers Manx - Iconic beach legend in as-new condition

Picture this: the Pacific Coast Highway stretches out ahead, the sun is high, and you are grinning behind the wheel of one of the most iconic recreational cars ever built. The Volkswagen Buggy Meyers Manx earns that grin. Its foundation lies with Volkswagen, the brand that made its name worldwide on the indestructible engineering of the Beetle. Back in the 1960s, designer and surfer Bruce Meyers spotted the perfect opportunity: build a light, playful beach car on top of the reliable Volkswagen Beetle platform.

And so the Meyers Manx was born, the original dune buggy. A shortened chassis, an ultra-light polyester body and Volkswagen's air-cooled boxer engine came together to create a driving experience like no other. This buggy became a symbol of freedom, sunshine, sand and adventure. In California the Manx grew into a cultural icon and even won off-road races such as the famous Baja events.

With its simple engineering, timeless design and enormous fun factor, the Volkswagen Buggy Meyers Manx is today a much-loved collector's piece and a true classic with rising popularity among enthusiasts and collectors alike.

Volkswagen Buggy Meyers Manx - Condition and specification

The Volkswagen Buggy Meyers Manx offered here, dating from December 1970, is in absolutely as-new condition. With only 34 kilometres on the clock since it was built, this is an exceptionally fresh and barely used example.

The buggy wears a stylish white body colour, paired with a black interior that suits the car's minimalist, sporty character perfectly. Add the gold-coloured wheels and this Meyers Manx gains an exclusive, playful look that does full justice to its Californian roots.

What makes it extra special: the Meyers Manx certificate is present, an important proof of authenticity that makes this buggy even more appealing to collectors. The manual gearbox delivers a pure, direct driving experience, exactly as intended in this lightweight fun car.

Thanks to proven Volkswagen engineering, the Buggy is renowned for its reliability and easy maintenance. At the same time this is a car that stirs the emotions: open-air driving, wind through your hair and a smile that appears all by itself.
