eBay watch: 1975 Volkswagen Beetle convertible

Looking for a summer runaround? This 1975 Volkswagen Beetle convertible should be just the thing when the sun starts to shine.

Taxed and tested, the 1600cc Beetle isn't an original convertible, it's been converted sometime in its past. But it been restored pretty well, most recently a new stereo and a full set of tyres. What we don't know is the mileage, with 11 previous owners it could be high.

But on the plus side, this isn't the most expensive car in the world, with bidding at £1,700 and a 'buy it now' of £2,000. For a good runner (or what claims to be), that's certainly an affordable classic. More images on the listing.
