Our customer offers for sale a 1958 VW Beetle Limousine De Luxe, featuring a 1200cc petrol engine and manual transmission. Restored in 1998 by a mechanic, this Beetle’s classic look and timeless appeal are enhanced by its beige faux leather interior. The vehicle has 82,100 kilometers on the clock and is located in Oeiras, Portugal.
The exterior and interior show some wear, consistent with age, though the paintwork and interior are still in respectable condition. The restoration included a paint job, which retains its appeal, while the interior is outfitted in faux leather, adding a touch of luxury to this vintage model. The car can have occasional startup difficulties, so some technical work is advised.
The Volkswagen Beetle, known for its iconic design, was originally developed in the 1930s as an affordable and practical vehicle for the masses. This particular Beetle represents the luxury variant of the lineup from the late 1950s, with premium features like a leather interior. Throughout the 1950s and ’60s, the Beetle became a symbol of reliability and easy maintenance, making it one of the most recognizable cars in history. Its small yet efficient engine provided an economical driving experience, and the manual transmission was a favorite among enthusiasts. The 1958 Beetle, with its classic round shape, is now a collector’s favorite due to its association with both the rise of post-war automotive design and the “counterculture” movement of the 1960s. This model stands out as one of the more luxurious Beetles of its era, with leather upholstery and other premium touches.
