    How much are you trading it in for?

    I may be interested in the beetle in present condition.

    Lot less hassle, cash in the hand.

    I am getting 2k for it from my local VW dealer. Its blue, W Reg with air con, sunroof and in very good condition. Would be open to offers but only reasonable ones. Its a lovely car and am sorry to see her go really.

    Can try and post a pic in you want.

    Just had a look at the MOT test.

    It says

    Exhaust emissions carbon monoxide content at idle excessive (7.3.2c)

    Exhaust emissions Lambda reading outside specified limits (&.3.2b)
