Re: I wonder how much this will sell for?
BAT (Bring-a-Trailer) calls it a Porsche, but it's no more a Porsche that a Type 1 Bug. Designed by Ferdinand Porsche and built by VW. It'll probably go for some big money but what would you do with it? It's history (1942 in occupied Poland) is also a bit disturbing.

Unfortunately the history of the Porsche and VW companies is also a bit disturbing, I try not to think about it.

Didn't Seinfeld just sell one at auction?

No; his was a Jagdwagen.

Are any of the "Wagens" more rare or desirable than another?

Re: I wonder how much this will sell for?
There was a very thorough article on the Porsche versions in our magazine, if only I had a memory for the details. I don't need one since I bought a Myers Manx clone over the winter and I have no idea why I did that!

For the same reason people climb mountains: Because It was There.

Re: I wonder how much this will sell for?
Agree on "disturbing". Especially if you intend to wear the matching uniform
On the other hand, the good thing is that this engine should not lead to endless conversations between you and Jacques about the choice of camshaft

Manx drivers wear a surfer outfit and never talk about camshafts.

Re: I wonder how much this will sell for?
When I was in high school a violinist in the Cleveland Orchestra had a Manx that I sometimes worked on. Even at a young age, I was afraid someone would see me driving it.

Re: I wonder how much this will sell for?
It's getting a little ridiculous with acquiring 2 Devins and a Manx recently but to be fair I sold my Caterham and Norton Commando. I'm thinking about selling one of the Devins because buying 2 was sort of an accident. I added the Manx to the signature.
