I did go and see the car the other week and whilst its not in bad nick and the paint work is reasonable ( bits of rust bubbles appearing on the bits of metal work (roof gutters and fuel cap) there are also a lot of the original pin holes that did not get filled that you can see. Door cards, center console interior door handles are missing. The headlights have been changed to the fiat ones and all the original flaps and mechanisms are missing.
He is wanting £3,500 for it, but I think with the bits missing and the headlight conversion I would want it correctly registered as an Avante (not a Beetle) and MOT'ed for that money.

With (1) feedback, that car will be on and off eBay for the next six months. Maybe after the new year he'll get the hint that it's not worth all that much..
