'ello :D

Jus wondered if anybody could shed anymore light on this particular model??

I know that the sparkafer basically means economy beetle but i jus wondered what the economy entailed?

I know its got a 1200 engine ... partial headliner (?), no chrome on dash and only left horngrill ... is there anything else??

If anyone happens to have any 1991 Volksworlds (will find out what issue) issues then apparently it's in there?!

looks pretty ok.
Check that the bits that have been painted over on the gutter aren't rusted / fillered or rotten

the partial headliner bit means just the top of the roof, ie not down all the pillars and around the windows etc. Other than that it's all just pretty basic bug. Drums all round, basic vents no other fancy bits no carpets etc.

If you need someone to have a look at it / go with ya i'm in north london, so find out where in n.london it is and i'll see if i can sort something out.

seems fairly honest for the money from the description / pics, but as flat4 said, need to check out what repairs (if any) have been done!
