This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, The Classic Sale at Wheeler Dealer Live 2025 on Sunday the 1st of June, Bicester Heritage, OX26 5HA.
A unique retail package on offer from the private Collection of Jamie Oliver - celebrity chef, restaurateur, author, and TV personality
Based on a 1967 1500cc Karmann-built Type 1 Convertible finished in Lotus White (cream)
The bespoke trailer is in fact the back half of a very similar vehicle modified to take an ice-cream fridge and condenser and designed to offer a platform for dispensing ice cream at events and private parties
The car was imported into the UK in May 2013 and has had three keepers during that time, the current being Jamie
Supplied good history file with details of lots of work and ongoing maintenance, invoices etc.
As a smart example of the sought after Karmann convertibles, this drop-top Beetle is appealing in its own right, naturally enhanced by its celebrity provenance, however, the addition of the ice cream trailer offering a potential business opportunity makes this unique package rather special
