Mainio kesäauto hellepäivien kruisailuun, toimii kyös talvella. Mainio kesäauto joka saa ihmiset hymyilemään ja moikkaamaan. Helppohuoltoinen ja varma auto. Penkeissä irroitettavat nahkapäälliset. Saman tyyppinen suoja myös asennettavissa katon suojaksi kun se on aukiasennossa. Mittarilukema 161700 km. Viimeisimmän huollon mittarilukema: 157 200 km Jakohihna yms. vaihdettu 155400 km, kuljettajan puolen takasivuikkuna ei avaudu sähköisesti, ikkunan moottori raksuttaa mutta vaijeri / mekanismi irronnut tai rikkoutunut. Uusi vaijerisarja 50-60 € + työt. En ole ehtinyt vaihtaa. Pelleissä normaalia kulumaa eli joitakin pieniä naarmuja jotka pääosin poistettavissa vahauksella tai myllytyksellä. Katon kangas iän mukaisesti menettänyt hieman alunperäistä väriään ja siinä jonkin verran linnun jätösten aiheuttamia jälkiä jotta saa peitettyä värjäyksellä. Huollot tehty säännöllisesti, mutta kilsoja tullut vähän.
