Description from the seller, in Finnish.

Appiukon puolesta myyntiin mersu. Tuote Saksasta 2005, ajettu suomessa vain kesäisin. Ikäisekseen pienillä kilometreillä. Autossa ulkoisia käytön jälkiä ja helmoissa alkavaa ruostevikaa joka näkyy kuvissa. Kaksilla renkailla. Auto on kesäkuussa katsastettu. Vaihteistossa on jotain vikaa. Kun lämpenee, niin vaihtaa huonosti pienemmälle vaihteelle. Paikallaan kun vaihteita vaihtaa (moottori ja vaihteisto kylmänä), niin oireilee seuraavasti (en ole varma liittyykö tuohon ylläkuvattuun). Kun auto seisoo tasaisella ja jos laittaa D-vaihteelle ei lähde jarrua nostamalla liikkeelle. Kun laittaa 2-vaihteelle lähtee liikkeelle. Jos 2 vaihteen jälkeen laittaa D-vaihteelle lähtee myös liikkeelle. Mutta jos D-vaihteelle laittaa P tai R vaihteelta ei lähde. Pakille kun laittaa lähtee myös liikkeelle jarrun nostamalla. Edellä oleva siis ilman kaasua. Kaasulla lähtee myös D-vaihteelta liikkeelle. Moottori toimii mielestäni hyvin. Vaihteiston ongelma ei estä koeajoa. Ongelmat alkavat noin 10-15 kilometrin ajon jälkeen riippuen ilman lämpötilasta, eli jotenkin ne liittyvät vaihteiston lämpenemiseen. Muut tiedossa olevat viat: kuvissa näkyvää alkavaa ruostevauriota, jonkinverran naarmuja maalipinnassa (mielestäni normaalia huomioiden auton ikä), Keskuslukituksen toiminnasta ei varmuutta, mielestäni hiukka heikosti nostaa nuppeja, mutta en huomannut kokeilla avautuvatko/sulkeutuvatko muut ovet, tuulilasissa halkeama, joka ei estänyt katsastusta, kuskinpenkissä kangas rikki.
