This delightful 1956 example of Messerschmitt's iconic bubble car is being sold complete with matching, original specification, teardrop trailer. A KR200 model powered by a 191cc two-stroke engine, it has apparently had just four owners in its 58-year history and is described by the vendor as `an exceptionally original car'. The streamlined aircraft-style body is finished in the eye-catching combination of Grey over Blue and the interior trimmed in a complementary shade of Blue. The car features a number of period accessories including chrome luggage rack and windscreen visor. The vendor currently views the bodywork and paintwork as `excellent', the very tidy-looking interior as `original', and the lusty single-cylinder engine (KR200s are capable of c.60mph!) as `great', and is now offering the Messerschmitt complete with custom-made indoor cover and history file. This lovely KR200 would grace any microcar collection and represents a unique opportunity for bubble car aficionados everywhere.
