Are you looking for that fun summer convertible that also gets great gas mileage? This is it... a VW New Style Beetle Convertible.
This VW Cabriolet is a 2003. It spent much of its life in Illinois in the same family, passed down from father to daughter. Below is a video collection of the car:

This vehicle has been well maintained but does have cosmetic dings and marks from use.
Mechanically, it has a brand new battery, recent tires, a brand new clutch and new timing belt. It starts and runs extremely well, without blue smoke and doesn't use oil. It shifts perfectly without any gear or synchro issues and the clutch feels awesome. It is smooth without shakes and shimmys when driven down the road, and the brakes work well. You would never know the mileage when driving the car as it feels like 50K. As with most of these, there is an occasional check engine light (random misfire) and I am including a new coil pack which may take care of it. I purchased it but the light is so random, I never replaced the coil pack.
Cosmetically, it is nice but a bit challenged as you can see. There are small dings and scratches, primarily on the front and rear bumpers and some minor rust starting on the rockers. The floor pans and underbody are great, and the top is nice aside from some minor rear window glass separation. The wheels do have some corrosion and a few marks from use as shown. The interior is starting to show wear with seat seams that have small rips. There is no broken glass and it appears to be complete. It features heated leather seats, VW Moonsoon stereo,A/C (needs recharge), and power top as well as other options. The original owner's manual, warranty booklet and even the original window sticker is included. It has probably had some touch up / work on the bumpers but believe it is original paint on the rest of the vehicle. To summarize, it is our opinion that this vehicle would be a very nice addition to anyone's fleet or collection. It would make a great project for the VW enthusiast.
