it's a collectors item!!!!
you're not supposed to drive it, you need to lock it away and tell everyone you have it.
all cars when you buy them they depreciate..alot! This mk1 001 will appreciate in value. and become more and more valuable as time goes by.

Correct, it's unique. Just like the other 377 thousand made.

- But these have special "plates" on...
Honestly though, it is an end of an era of a car that has a special place in many, many people's lives...

For the true collector??? Maybe not, doesnt mean you have to be a "true" collector to spend stupid money on this car
On the other hand, you have to be really stupid to pay so much, my 2c

In 20 years time what would be worth more?..
the last Mk1 one produced with 10km on the clock or
A mint condition Mk1 GTi
Id reckon the GTi would be priceless then..

Guys, as DJ Lost said, the one on auction is number 003. That is the third last one made. 002 and 001 are going to be put in the museums in Germany and Uitenhage. (I just signed my name on 001 this afternoon. I assume this will also be the one which goes to Uitenhage).
As for the price, I also think its ridiculous. But then again there are people that spend that much money on bottles of wine/whiskey, etc. And by the way, the money is going to charity, not to VW.
