It's arrived!!

5 years of drooling, 2 years of planning....... and finally, Little "Red" is now sitting in my garage. 2000 std, 5 spd mnl with some trimmings (silver dash dials, silver painted roll bars), with 35k on it.... and its MINE (oh... and my wifes)!!

A hiccup to begin with - needed to get the MAS replaced - thankfully under sales warranty ($600!) - the check light had been reset prior to sale, and drive sequences had not been completed when inspected (a good clue...), so I had it written into the sales contract that if CEL came on in first 1000 miles, they would take care of it - sure nuff.... it happened after 30 miles of driving!! (note to new buyers - have the codes pulled prior to purchase!!).

So I look forward to sharing great stories, frustrations and learnings about our favourite german friend!!

Sincerely,

The Kiwi (now) in Houston.....

Congratulations!

Now we need to see some pictures. Your color scheme is not common and so I especially want to see your ride.

Thanks and best of luck with the new to you Box!
