Where the New Beetle FWD, PW, PL, PS, AC, Automatic fits

From October 1998 the kei rules allowed a longer and wider body, 3.40 metres by 1.48 metres, with the engine still capped at 660cc. Every manufacturer redesigned its range around the new figures, and vehicles from this period are the first to combine kei running costs with a cab an adult can sit in comfortably.

Recorded mileage is 29,249, which works out at roughly 47,100 km on the original kilometre scale.

Reading the specification

Japanese-market saloons and coupes of this period were built to a domestic specification that never crossed to North America: different engines, different trim, different equipment, and in many cases a model that was simply never offered elsewhere. That is the reason to import one rather than buy a local equivalent — there is no local equivalent.

We quote the cars individually. Specification matters more than mileage on this kind of import and the figure depends on where it is going, so ask and we will price it properly.

Getting it to you

Built in 2001, it sits the far side of the 25-year federal import cut-off. Customs entry, import documentation and title work are all done here, and we arrange transport to any state. Ask us for a price and include your delivery state; we will quote the vehicle and the transport together.
