Nick, please return to this thread and report as to how much it costs to keep that fine specimen on the road. I've always wanted to buy one, but thought the cost of ownership would be far too much to make it worth the purchase.

Randall,

Yeah, first thing I asked him - "Did you get a PPI ?" - No

I told him I hope he has a lot of money in the bank allocated for maintenance / repairs...

Sweet car, though.

Nick

Those are great cars, though now they are 20 years old, and the air cooled motors are clearly in demand, the guys who really know how to work on them are not cheap, and thus keeping these older beasts running can be quite expensive.

GREAT cars though!
