It left a lot of adhesive behind that was being really stubborn about coming off, until I decided (on a hunch) to try rubbing the spot with car wax, it came right off then. You can't even tell it was there anymore.

If she just wants that shape then the newer 380s are generally a little cheaper. If you want the best then the later 560s or a grey market 500 is better.

Eh, it has a lot of old car problems that aren't worth the money to repair. I could totally dump $5000 into the thing tomorrow if I wanted to, but it still starts up, drives straight, and stops, so that is good enough. It is one of those cars that isn't really worth fixing up.

Top work Paige! I am ashamed to say I have abondoned the cheap and cheerful set and sold my Type 3 VW a couple of years ago when I bought a new Honda Fit. I still miss him sometimes. Was basically my daily driver for about ten years starting from about 3 months after I moved to this city.
