First Look: Volkswagen Kool Kombi 1


For all of you Volkswagen fans, we are taking a closer look at the 2013 New Model

This is a shortened drag version of the Volkswagen Kombi.  Kombi comes from the German Kombinationskraftwagen, which means “combination motor vehicle.”  It featured removable rear seats so it could function as a passenger van or cargo vehicle.

Right now, this 2013 New Model has been spotted in 3 variations:

2013-169 Volkswagen Kool Kombi (HW Showroom – 2013 New Model)

  • green $2.00
  • orange $2.00
  • white $2.00

They were very popular when they first came out, sometimes selling  for up to $10 on the secondary market.  They have become more plentiful over time and are now selling for a max of $2.00.

There was an error with no tampos on the white version that sold for $76 on Ebay.  This is a very popular casting due to the popularity of all things VW so errors and variations on this model will tend to command much higher premiums than errors on other models.
