Does look nice but I'm guessing you'd actually get a decent actual Mk1 for the same money ?

Big seats and tinted windows spoil the look. Is the dash converted to centre binacle?
It wood look even better with a black roof and some nice Dunlop SP's or 145 cross-plys.
Better to look for a decent, real mk1.

I do not know if this one is in Den Bosch, I had plans to buy this one
but is was sold very fast. The Swiss owner in the UK could not get a
registration on this one.
The red Retro MKl is also sold, my search will go on mybe (I hope so)
a real MKl .
