Guess that was the year of import then, which after posting above I've googled a bit and it would look to be at latest a '63 from the engine lid.
Yes, I would say either 1962 or 1963.

It's a 1962 MY - new taillights (but early licence plate light) came in August 1961, and in general it's identical to 1963 MY except for one thing: the Wolfsburg crest is still retained on the bonnet just above the handle. 1963 models didn't have the crest...

That car looks to be the same model year as the Herbie car, so it's probably a '63 if I'm not mistaken.

p.s.
KS nailed it.

Ha ha ..... I haven't sat in one (recently) so I still really want one! Was it the driving position that put you off? I love the look of this GTS, coming to auction next month. Please save / stop me ....
