Anyone have any idea what this rack fits? Does not appear to have been altered. Feet, straps and hardware appear to match rack.

Universal, adjustable for many small roof cars. Many companies made specialty model numbers for VWs alongside their more universal offerings- just like Barrecrafter did for decades here in the US. Yours is turned sideways- so turn it and see how far off it really is for a beetle. I'll bet it's wider than the rain gutters- and the angles will be "off."

Your rack is less seen around here than the VW-specific model, for good reason- we're VW specific. It's also really cool! I bet it would sell quick in a Seat or Opel forum. I'd run it because it is easy on and off- and seldom seen- but only on a car with old paint.
