Nice price all the way - with PPI. No PPI, no deal. Check the trunk for bodies too. It’s not a GT, doesn’t pretend to be, you can insure it, and won’t end up twirling around backwards when your juvenile impulses take over.

First: I would never buy this.

Case in point; intermediate shaft bearings of a certain vintage. Older (cheap entry level car)? Thanks for buying a new engine!

I have serious reservations about the folks who went NP for that Biturbo. This car at least will get you around town in a reliable manner. 

“...I hope they’ve got a manual one around and I’ll gladly sell / trade my Golf R for one.”

Great, a fat heavy 7.3L anchor with massive torque up front in a rear wheel drive car. What could go wrong? Another reason to skip Cars and Coffee.

I grew up in the next town. The entire project was a political, environmental, money/graft driven boondoggle. A million trees died just for the newsprint dedicated to editorials boosting/decrying the project.

That was grating on me too.

I looked at one of these when I transferred to Italy back in 1995. Exterior and interior were spotless. Open the hood and everything (I mean EVERYTHING) was disassembled. Piles of parts, wires, hoses; the mechanic at the shop said he’d try to put it back together if I bought the car. I moved on - so should you.

Worst case, best case? On American roads these days, being that small, low, and flexible is scary.

Price is nice even without trying to beat the seller out of a couple of grand to fix the dick extensions. I guess Larry the Lounge Lizard was expecting the young hot chicks to “dig” the wing and sound; somehow obscuring his gut and hair plugs. 

Stars for all the thank yous for Rob. I even hit up a couple of grays for being positive. My internet bucks account is primed for a new year. Happy to all.

The new hot property. Self-storage places are saturated. As pointed out below, vape shops went overboard.

That’s the design intent. At least one warhead (used on two systems) was determined to NOT be one point safe AND could be detonated by the continuity tester. You get those fancy RED bordered messages that you were supposed to drop everything and read them! Turned out that the tester circuits had deteriorated and the…

Jingle Bells, Santa Smells ...... And this here offering too. Others have done sleuthing. I’m curious about the steering wheel? No alarm lights on the dash? 

Anyone unbelted becomes a deadly projectile flying around in a crash. Same with stuff piled up above the rear seats in an SUV/CUV/Minivan. One loose body, everybody’s brains get scrambled.

At first I though this was a repeat of the South Dakota Attorney General who killed a pedestrian (deer!!??).

Great review - summary of what’s out there. I’m a big bread man (barely holding the waist down). It’s hard to save room for the main meal when I could go full on assault on a good bread(s).

I thought the pictures were compressed to have it appear that short. It really is that awkward.

Stop giving Elmo ideas!
