I bought one for my ex wife, an '05 (last year made), black on black, got plenty of compliments (German tourist wanted to buy it from me at a gas station) but it was somewhat of a lemon, unfortunately. It had engine knock (detonation) even with the highest octane gas I could find and the dealer could never get the tires and wheels properly balanced. Sold it when we split up.. |

So, it seemed an appropriate gift for her!
However, she sees it as me buying her a new bowling ball that has holes drilled to fit my hand!!!
34K miles on it and in need of some TLC only because it wasn't used much. I purged the old brake fluid (about the color of yesterday's coffee!) and replaced it with DOT 5 Silicone. I checked the trans fluid and that's the right color and fill level. Engine oil is new and good. Power steering fluid is good. Radiator level is good. I bought it sight unseen and drove it 450 miles home. No incidents! (Phew!)
It's a nice "Used Car......"
Best wishes,
OAG Tom |
