- Katsastettu huomautuksitta kesäkuun lopussa, eli lähes vuosi ajoaikaa.
- Moottoriöljyt + Suodatin juuri vaihdettu 2t km sitten.
- Huollettu säännöllisesti huolto-ohjelman mukaan.
Viimeisen 2 vuoden aikana korjattua :
- Uusi vaihteen valitsin, kun vanha rupesi takeltelemaan.
- Vaihdelaatikon johdinlevyv + laatikkoöljyt ja suodatin ( 10 t km sitten)
- Uudet etujarrut ( palat + levyt)
- Kampiakselin asentotunnistin.
- Ajovaloumpioiden lasit/muovit
- Lisävalopaneeli keulalle. Todella mukava ajella pimeälläkin kun valoa riittää.
Varusteita:
- Musta täysnahka sisusta ( se kuskin penkin kulmakin on ehjä )
- Lämmitetyt takapenkit
- Tehdastummat ikkunat
- Avantgarde varusteet, musta pähkinäpuu verhoilu.
- Kaukosäätöinen Webasto, - Kahdet renkaat, kesärenkaat 17" ( ei kuvissa näkyvät) talvirenkaat 16 " nastat.

- Edessä rautajouset, taakse vaihdettu Arnott:n ilmapussit joissa ostaessa elinikäinen takuu.
Miinuksia :
- Ruostetta takakaarissa ja luukussa.
- Moottorista vuotaa vähän öljyä, todennäköisesti silmälasitiiviste on pettänyt öljynlauhduttimesta ( mallivika näissä). Huomasin muutaman tipan öljyä kun auto seisonut pihassa 2 viikkoa. Asiaa ei vielä tutkittu paremmin. Osat tähän eivät ole kalliit, mutta työtä vaihtaminen vaati jonkin verran.
