Coupe all the way! The convertibles lose the gorgeous curves when the roof is cut off. In my opinion. I had a 59 Ghia (not a lowlight) as a parts car once. It was a rust bucket. Same colour as the 59 in your video. In currently using many of its parts to restore a 61. Great video thanks for sharing 👍
Thanks for watching and commenting! Always great when our videos bring back memories. Looking forward to seeing your '61 when it's ready! You could argue, that convertibles always loose a bit of the original design, yet they're both gorgeous cars!
Haha, it’s a hard job but someone has got to do it. Seriously, it’s an absolute pleasure and honour to work with cars of this quality and provenance. Thanks for watching!
According to babvvo and tebbvo laws, sadly from 2030 on all combustion cars including classics will be banned from public streets in entire EU and Scandinavia :-( In Germany the Green Peoples Party gave order to shorten fuel supply from 2025 on by reducing petrol stations to only one state operated central gas station per city. From 2027 on in the EU certain car spare parts will be banned too....as exhaust systems, turbo chargers and even some engine and gearbox oils...California and New York will do the same from 2027 on.... So no investments should be done in oil burning cars any longer....They even created a new kind of crime here, called emissions and smoke crime. so beware of expensive cars today they will be forbidden and worthless tomorrow!!
Let's see what will actually happen. Yes, the EU plans a ban on the sale of new passenger cars with ICE from 2035, but synthetic fuels may change this. In addition, many other things can happen. I am confident, that we will be able to enjoy our beloved classic cars for many years to come and not worried, that they will be forbidden.
These are very beautiful Karmann Ghias 🤗♥️🤩
Thank you, David! They are indeed. Merry Christmas!
The coupé is absolutely gorgeous.
Thank you. It is! Do you have one yourself?

Good show Johan.....very informative.
Thank you so much! Happy to see that you enjoy your content. Much more coming up!
My first car (1973) was a Karmann coupé, red/white 🎉
What a lovely first car! I'm happy to hear that our video brings back memories. Thanks for watching and commenting!
I'm seriously jealous! :))

None of what you said makes these cars “worthless”, even as a museum piece
