1969 Volkswagen Variant Fastback 1.6 petrol

Summary:

A car worth keeping!

Faults:

1. Rings changed.

2. Minor repair in the gear box.

General Comments:

I like Volkswagen because of its good engineering design, reliability and robustness. My Volkswagen Fastback has two Solex carburettors with a 1600 CC engine.

The car is quick and smart. My father bought it and we have found this car very reliable, just like a member of our own family!

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

I am interested in buying a Variant 1969 with dual carburetors and (I guess) an 1.6 engine.

Could anyone of you tell me about the economy of this car?

How many miles or kilometers per gallon may I expect??

Thank you, very much.

CARLOS.
