AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
IN AUCTION
* Equipped with Federperiti Perizia Garanzia Conformità
* Version 1302 "Flat Glass"
* Original black plates from the Province of Naples
* Technical inspection valid until September 2027
* In the original L90E Alp White color
HISTORY / OVERVIEW
The Volkswagen Beetle 1302 represents one of the most appreciated evolutions of the famous Beetle, introducing important improvements in terms of comfort and handling while preserving the iconic design that has made the model one of the most recognizable cars in the world.
The example offered at auction is an Italian 1971 version, belonging to the sought-after 1302 "Flat Glass" series, easily identifiable by the flat windshield and dashboard, features that precede the more famous curved panoramic windshield introduced with the 1303 series in 1973.
Presented in the classic original color, **L90E Alp White**, the car retains its original black plates from the Province of Naples and has recently undergone a technical inspection, passed without any defects.
EXTERIOR
The bodywork was repainted a few years ago by the previous owner, respecting the correct factory original color. Subsequently the car has been mostly kept outdoors and shows some localized corrosion points, clearly documented in the attached photographs. Overall the car still presents a pleasant appearance and is presentable, as well as suitable for use.
The chassis has been repainted and the floors restored during the previous restoration work and are generally very solid and structurally usable.
INTERIOR
The cabin is complete and well preserved. The seats are upholstered with recently installed covers and show only normal signs compatible with the age of the car, as do the door panels and headlining. The dashboard retains the distinctive single combined instrument and the flat painted dashboard, characteristic elements of the 1302 "Flat Glass" version highly appreciated by enthusiasts of the model.
The cabin headlining is in good condition, the windows operate smoothly, and the overall interior is neat and pleasant. A thorough interior sanitization has also recently been carried out.
MECHANICS
Mechanically the car is functioning and the engine has been kept in efficiency through periodic starting attempts: it starts easily and runs smoothly.
Gearbox, clutch and braking system operate correctly, gear engagement is regular during use.
The technical inspection is currently valid until September 2027, confirming the car's roadworthiness.
As with any classic car, before undertaking long journeys it is advisable to perform a general check and standard preventive maintenance.
A Volkswagen Beetle 1302 "Flat Glass" with authentic charm, complete with the sought-after original black plates from the Province of Naples and finished in the elegant Alp White color. A configuration increasingly appreciated by model enthusiasts, ideal as a base for an evolution or simply to enjoy in its genuine originality.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
