However there are a hell of a lot of tarted up basket cases out there so you have to be very, very careful indeed. The MOT history on this one alone says avoid to me

Ah, in that case that's eased the pain of having to pass it by. Thanks for the tip. Yeah I guess when cars are this age you really really need to tread carefully.

Did look nice in the pics - but thats rarely the full story.

Had 2 years back, a 1973 1600 GT Beetle in Tomato Red and a 1975 1303 "Super Beetle" in Marino Yellow liked both, especially the 1303. Not a patch on the air cooled NSU's I also had at the time though. The NSU 1000 could match the 1600 GT Beetle and the 1200TT would just just disappear into the distance
