I hope the sunroof doesn't leak.
Seriously... very nice. I can see her in the summer driving with the top down.
Now i'm sure Bill can help you hack the computer
Is she gonna join TOC?

The top apparently leaks a little in heavy rains on one side. Have to take a look and see what I can do about it.
It needs work, broken tail light, rear view mirror, that sort of stuff. But for the price, and it only has 98k on it, I couldn't pass it up. Plus the guy who sold it to me is Filipino. Once he heard Gemma was also, he dropped the price
First thing I gotta do is change that annoying door buzzer!

Online dealer give them the key code and they will send the key cut to your door. Special machine. There are a bunch of locksmiths that cut those keys locally that do and specialize euro keys.

Anyone know where to look for used parts for this thing? Need a steering column cover and I ain't spending $90 for a new one.

Car-part.com searches junkyards throughout country. Find a facebook group. And ebay.

Re: Xmas came early for Gemma
Thanks all. Ordered some parts today. Realized the lock on the driver's door doesn't work. Which wouldn't be that bad except that I don't have the remote and the passenger door doesn't have a lock at all. Never saw that before
