My Red_Dash username is because I once owned this beauty which had a gorgeous red dashboard.

So, it's quiz time now :)

For 50 kudos points, what car is it? (make and model)
And I'll give you an extra 100 kudos points if you can tell me the name of the interior...

Any more takers?

I'm going to award James5 the initial 50 kudos points for correctly identifying that it is a VW type 3.

However, the 100 kudos points goes to Coops who identified that it is in fact a pearl white 1965 VW type 3 fastback (registered 1st Jan 1966) with uber rare Pigalle interior. I only know of 1 other RHD Pigalle still in existence and that's in Australia.
I sold it to a guy from Belgium about 6-7 years ago and it has since changed hands and now resides in France.

Very impressed with your classic VDub knowledge there Coops. But, for a few more bonus points, what other rare interiors were produced for the type 3 range in that same year?...

Another pic for you:

:D I am pretty chuffed with that, that's as far as my knowledge goes on VDubs.
