Popularity of the Beach Buggy peaked in the late 1960's and early 1970's with the Volkswagen Beetle, nicknamed 'Bug' (hence 'Buggy') which were most commonly used for the platform. Ideal because the rear engine layout improves traction, the air-cooled engine avoids the complexities and failure points associated with water-cooled units. Dune buggies generally came with fiberglass bodies. The original dune buggy was the 1964 Meyers Manx built by classic constructor, Bruce Meyers, using a Volkswagen Beetle chassis.

This superb looking beach buggy was originally registered in 1970 and is presented in yellow with a black interior. The look of this stylish Volkswagen is enhanced with wide rear tyres and an exhaust system to match the car's character. The front seats are bucket seat style and include four-point harness seatbelts. Offered to auction with a V5C registration document, various sundry bills and old MoT test records, this really is a fantastic example ready to enjoy in the coming Summer months.
