The seller offers for sale a 1972 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia Cabriolet, a timeless icon of German design and engineering. Powered by a 1.6L air-cooled four-cylinder engine, this cabriolet features a manual transmission, offering an engaging and enjoyable driving experience. The car has been in the same family for 40 years, originally purchased from its first owner in Germany. It has a verified mileage of 94,000 km and comes with Dutch registration.
According to the owner, it has been regularly serviced, with its most recent service performed recently. The car has been dry-stored and retains a solid underside.
The exterior underwent a repaint approximately 40 years ago, with one rear panel refinished later. Some small blisters are visible on the paint, but the overall condition remains good. The original convertible top is in fine shape, showcasing the car’s authenticity. The interior features original seats, with minor wear such as seam tears on the driver’s seat and the typical dashboard crack. All gauges and instruments are reported to be in working order.
Introduced in 1955, the Karmann Ghia married the reliable mechanicals of the Volkswagen Beetle with the sleek design of Italian styling house Ghia. Hand-built by German coachbuilder Karmann, the convertible variant added open-air driving pleasure to its elegant form. Today, it remains one of the most beloved classic cars, celebrated for its design and usability.
