eBay watch: 1965 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia L

eBay watch: 1967 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia
I know we have featured one of these in the past, but I couldn't resist highlighting this superb example of a Volkswagen Karmann Ghia currently on eBay.
It dates from 1967, but according to the seller, the car has been 'completely taken apart, sand blasted then rebuilt', with new brakes, wheels, tyres, interior and paint job, while the engine has been taken apart, rebuilt and re-chromed professionally. In addition, the engine has been tunes and the gearbox reconditioned. It's certainly an impressive restoration.
Downside? Well, left hand drive if you're not used to it and possibly the price. Right now it's at £1, but with a reserve, that means nothing. You can take a chance that the reserve is fairly low or you can simply splash out on the 'buy it now' priced of £8,500 if you happen to be feeling flush.

eBay watch: 1972 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia
It's a classic shape – and if you like the colours yellow and black, this Volkswagen Karmann Ghia might be for you.
Dating back to 1972, it's a right hand drive model, MOT'd until June 2011, with leather upholstery, original carpet and door panels having been 'renewed'. That colour, by the way is original, albeit resprayed back to its original colour. The 1600cc engine is said to work fine too.
Right now it's at £2,500. Not perfect for the current weather, but come the spring, you might just be glad you invested in it.
