Equipment
Automatic, sunroof, 9:1 compression head, Bluemels steering wheel, driving lights, badge bar, fender mirrors, skirts, picnic tables and cabinet, concealed CD stereo. Fastidiously restored at great cost in the mid 90s and still an outstanding example although showing a little use and age. Good (probably redyed original) seat coverings. No Reserve.
Market commentary
OK. This is enough to buy two of the best Mk IXs in the world; maybe three. A stunning result eked out in an exhibit of auction theater between two determined bidders. St. Patricks day was the following week and the Leprechauns were working their mischief upon the bidders hearts and paddles.
