UDrive Automobiles is a family-owned, boutique car dealership located in West Chester, PA. We offer sales of hand-selected, special-interest vehicles. The majority of our inventory is sourced out of the garages of private enthusiasts around the country. We look for interesting cars with low mileage, unique color combinations, high levels of equipment, and rare options. Simply put, we buy cars from enthusiasts, for enthusiasts. 

This 1965 VW Bus restoration was completed by East Coast VW Restorations in 2018.  It was commissioned by one of our longtime local clients. The inspiration was his matching, Meissen Blue 1957 Vintage Speedster.  Like many of our clients, the thrill is in the project.  Not very long after its completion we were lucky to have it as part of our inventory.  We sold it to a local client that has cared for it over the past 5 years. We were recently given the opportunity to bring it back into our inventory once again. Needless to say, we acted quickly! This Bus has traveled 3,885 since its completion.
