The seller offers for sale a Goggomobil T300 from 1963, a compact sedan with a manual gearbox and petrol power from a 0.3 litre 2-cylinder engine. It was delivered new in the Netherlands and has remained with its first owner. The maintenance booklet is present with matching engine and chassis information. The car is described as largely original, with paintwork resprayed because the finish had become dull, while the strips are said to be in good condition and the bumpers have been rechromed. The interior is reported to retain its original trim and upholstery without damage. The engine is reported to start without issues, with no blue or white smoke when warm and no unusual engine noises. The gearbox is reported to shift smoothly and without unusual sounds. The seller notes small rust spots in a few areas that do not yet require repair, and also mentions minor blemishes in a few places. A carburettor clean is mentioned as a point of attention.
The Goggomobil is a well-known German microcar from the post-war era, built by Hans Glas in Dingolfing and produced across the 1955–1969 period. The T-series sedan is compact, rear-engined and rear-wheel drive, aimed at economical motoring with a light footprint and a simple, characterful driving experience. With the 300 cc straight-twin two-stroke setup commonly associated with the T300 variants, it offers the kind of cheerful, back-to-basics motoring that has made microcars popular with collectors for events, local touring, and display.
