OWN THIS KOMBI FROM $500 PER MONTH* We always get a lot of people asking for an Automatic Kombi. Well now your dreams have been answered! Here we have Marigold, the best of all things Kombi. A 1979 2 litre fuel injected Automatic Microbus.
If you are like many of our customers, you are probably looking for a restored Kombi with no issues for under $30k. Sadly with prices these days, that's becoming a hard thing to get. Well now is your chance. Marigold ticks all of those boxes. Being a 79 model she is a german import and if you know about your Kombis, you will know the 77-79 models were the German imports and they were a superior build to their early Australian built counterparts. It's now years on that the major difference is really noticeable: superior metal. We have cut repair sections for early and late model Kombis and we were surprised to find that yes, the metal on the 77-79 is actually thicker! This Superior build with superior metal means the 77-79 models have far less rust issues.
If you have a look under Marigold you will see the whole underbody is original and rust free. If you are buying a restored Kombi it's always better to buy something that was solid to begin with. Well Marigold was just that. We have resprayed her in her original Marino L21h, but underneath we only found very minimal rust with only a few minor spots needing attention with the welder. We are pretty confident you won't have any major rust issues with Mari and if you look after her and keep her away from the elements, she will continue to live a happy, relatively cancer free life.
As for the mechanical side, well, we purchased this one from down in campbelltown and drove her all the way back up to the central coast without a problem. Although we don't have any paperwork, I can see a lot of work has gone into this one to keep it mechanically right. Where you would normally expect the underside of the engine and transmission of a Kombi to be quite greasy, this one is very dry. It also look like the transmission has been out relatively recently and it appear to have a new pan and new CV's and boots. The engine runs beautifully and it changes well through all gear when both cold and warmed up. Obviously you will need to maintain Mari with regular services and replace wearable items when they fail but from what we can tell, for a Kombi, this should be relatively trouble free.
The only thing you really need to consider with Mari is how you want to fit out the rear interior? Do you want her to be an 8 seater or will you use her for camping trips and maybe a rock-n-roll would be your preference. Whatever it is we can help make finish it off, or maybe you would like to save some money and do it yourself. Either way, Mari is definitely a great buy at $29,990.
