Volkswagen Beetle

Cars

The Volkswagen Beetle is a compact car with a long history, originally rear engined and air cooled from the 1930s through to 2003, then reborn as a front engined, water cooled model built on the Golf platform from 1998. It was sold as a coupe and cabriolet, prized for its distinctive rounded shape and retro styling cues. It sat as a lifestyle model within Volkswagen's range rather than a mainstream family car.

1938 to 2019

We recognise this model across the auction sites and keep every one we see together.

On a used one

Check for rust in sills, floor pans and wheel arches on older air cooled cars, and verify engine and gearbox condition. On new Beetles, check the condition of the convertible roof mechanism, electrics and service history.

Questions about Volkswagen Beetle auction prices

What does a Volkswagen Beetle sell for at auction?

51 sales with a published hammer price, closed between 4 September 2019 and 6 November 2026, on 30 auction sites in 8 countries. 152 more closed without a sale.

Is a Volkswagen Beetle at auction now?

16 vehicles of this model are at auction now; they are listed on this page with their current bid and when they close.

Are the Volkswagen Beetle hammer prices free to read?

The oldest sale of every model is free to read, and so is every hammer price under the site's floor. The other 49 hammer prices of the Volkswagen Beetle open with an account: every sale of the model for a year, or one sale on its own.

How often does a Volkswagen Beetle find a buyer at auction?

On the auction sites that publish the lots that failed to sell, 45 of 72 Volkswagen Beetle lots offered found a buyer: 63%. For cars as a whole it is 48%. Withdrawn lots are not counted.

Hammer prices are what the auction house recorded when the lot closed, before the buyer's premium, in the currency of the sale. A sale listed on a house's own site and on its platform counts once. Doubt a figure? Open the sale and its listing is linked there. How prices are recorded.
