These things are the cockroaches of the Automotive world. Very tough, reliable and if looked after will go on for well over a million KMs without a rebuild, or even the need for anything major. Basically a very good example of German engineering at its finest. They used very durable steel, and mostly engines that weren't particularly stressed in use, Diesels especially.

Yours is stunning, Factory 2 tone and Wipers on the headlights as well. Diesel or Petrol?. 108k miles, it's only just getting run in I think. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
