Having been owned by just one lady from new, with a genuine 34,000 miles on the clock, this classic is a rare find that speaks to both its history and exceptional care. The KR200 remains in its original condition and is in good working order, making it not just a collector’s item but an enjoyable vehicle to drive. This car comes with an incredible history, including the original bill of sale, finance agreement, and the UK logbook, all carefully preserved, along with the original service manual. Originally sold for just £181.00 in 1959, this car offers both an investment opportunity and a piece of automotive history. In June 1989, the car underwent a light restoration by Ristes Coach Works in Nottingham, a company still renowned for its vintage Rolls Royce restorations. After being stored from 1991 until 2023, the car was recently revived by a local enthusiast who replaced the perished rubber suspension and serviced the engine. The vehicle now runs perfectly, driving beautifully, and the roof is in excellent condition. This Messerschmitt KR200 Cabriolet is a perfect blend of rarity, charm, and fun.
