19 - VOLKSWAGEN BEETLE 1303 L RED: YEAR: 17.0.1976. Serial No.: 1572028570. 5-digit odometer reading: 24,807 km. French vehicle registration certificate. Body style: Convertible. Color: red. The 1303 L convertible, built by Karmann, is one of the final iterations of the iconic classic Beetle produced in the early 1970s. Particularly appreciated for its improved comfort, curved windshield, and convertible body style, it offers better handling than its predecessors as well as a more spacious trunk. The 1303 L convertible has become a highly sought-after classic due to its ease of maintenance—thanks to simple mechanics and the wide availability of parts—as well as the sense of belonging to a strong community of enthusiasts. It was the last version manufactured in Germany before production ceased in 1980. This version is equipped with a rear-mounted, air-cooled, flat-four engine with a displacement of 1,285 cc. The convertible is in excellent cosmetic condition. A valid roadworthiness certificate dated June 18, 2026—which notes a few minor issues—will be provided to the buyer.
