    A VW Karmann Ghia, i've fallen in love with the car and i've had a look online and i can't find a lot out there.

    So if anyone knows of one going preferably in munster, but would be willing to go further afield if the right car came up, would ye be so kind as to either post here or pm me, please?

    Have a look here: www.carandclassic.co.uk there's a few up for sale there, i know it's not quite local. They don't come cheep!

    Can't these be gotten in kit form?

    Eircooled is down at the moment but I know there's a really good '71 cabrio for sale on there right now.

    A few nice examples there alright, cheers for that, was kinda hoping to stay in Ireland, but i suppose the UK wouldn't be too bad, I haven't seen them in kit form, but then having said that i don't have the time to do a kit car, i'd really need one that i can just turn the key in and drive off.

    Yeah as Justin said try eircooled.com


    Theres been and is a couple for sale on there! I had a 71 convertible and sold it on there!

    Id head to the UK though, irish bug prices are always inflated!

    Try:

    http://www.volkszone.com/ -biggest/busiest forsale section in UK

    http://www.pre67vw.com/

    http://www.restowagenuk.com/ -cleanest cars!

    http://www.onlyaircooled.com/ -big for sale section!

    www.thesamba.com Most popular with cars from all over the world!


    Even if you dont want to travel abroad to buy, compare irish prices with cars advertised in UK on Volkszone!!

    You've probably already seen it, but there's this on Car Zone.

    http://www.carzone.ie/used-cars/Volkswagen/Karmann-Ghia/1.5/1126131/

    Doesn't seem such a bad price considering it's in Ireland.

    Try this one. It's been in storage for ages and had a lot of work done before it was put into storage. A great car and it's in Cork ;)

    It's the same idea as the reg on my old Oval that I bought from justinoval. He has done the same on his new bus too.
