| Yes....around 150 and then VW germany told to d'Ieteren Belgium to stop the production as they whould not give garanty on a car the is not official made by VW. Remember the engine came from Oettinger. Only availeble in ruby red and the green color. Tacho goes to 160 km/hn steering wheel is from a type 3. Wheels are porsche 15. To identify one you have to look under the carpets....There is a sign underneath in white paint. Those I mentione are the only 2 known survivors. Roumor is that there is another one but I have not seen proof of it. |
