Comments from the seller
This classic vehicle is in great condition - I have owned for a few years now and had great fun getting it all working really well. This has included a full overhaul of the front end and replacement of almost all inlet tubing under the inlet manifold. Recently repaired the faulty wheels in the odometer and had rest of speedo checked over. Repaired those faulty window regulators. Regularly serviced through my ownership. New brakes including hoses. Fuel pump and accumulator. Replaced springs in front driver seat. The list goes on (and available).
Not a thing to do except enjoy driving one very smooth and comfortable example of precise German engineering.
Only selling because I am moving onto a new project.
