Yes — it is not an original car, and we are not selling it as one.
What it is, is a neat and tidy 1959 Beetle that presents well, starts on the turn and runs nicely after a recent service and tune-up.
The paintwork is fair, the interior is fair, and the car is not perfect — but at this price point it represents a great opportunity to get into a proper early Beetle without spending a fortune.
It also retains the much-loved semaphores, adding plenty of period charm.
A usable, honest classic that is priced to sell.
Paperwork in order.
Located in Shere, Pretoria East for viewings per appointment only.

★★★★★ - A True Sanctuary for Classic Car Enthusiasts I recently had the pleasure of visiting Wat Swaai Jy and was absolutely blown away. This isn't just a dealership; it's a museum where every car tells a story. From impeccably restored muscle cars to perfectly preserved European grand tourers, their inventory is diverse and of the highest quality. What truly sets them apart is the expertise and genuine passion of the staff, not only about the mechanics and history of the vehicles but also about the provenance and market value. There was zero pressure—just honest, excited discussion about classic cars. If you're serious about finding a rare, high-quality classic, or just want to spend an afternoon admiring automotive history, Wat Swaai Jy is the definitive place to go. A truly world-class operation.
