Anyone want to chip in? I'm 849,999 dollars short of the base model http://www.terrawind.com/terrawind.htm

this is all good stuff thanks for the info in regards to my prvious comment about leather "wear" - how shiny should the steering wheel be? upto 100k? How's everyone elses STD wheel/helm/tiller looking? My car has mats - so the carpet check is out of the question
-
LOL Thanks for that Chris/monkey chin

it was HPI'd by the guy I got it from *groan* no history so you might be laughing already but the car is solid - and the leather is only a wee bit worn - no death cracks/tears etc - and the bolster on the OS is very good - steering wheel a little shiny - but it is approaching 95k Hmmm - you can get it done "professionally" well that's a worry engine has been rebuilt - so I'm happy with her it's just it's the clocks you stare at everyday . . . . .

carful with them "ew" comments . . . .

How easy is it to do this? Obviously on the older analogue clocks - fairly easy and with a screwdriver and a bit of patience. But the later cars - the ones with digi clocks - is this possible? Is this easy? REASON WHY I ASK - *not dodgy* I bought my C recently - and it had a lowish sub 100k mileage. And the dash has been obviously "tampered" with - damaged plastic over the "clocks" - dodgy gap alignment around the bezel. excuse from vendor "I have recently changed the heater matrix" so that's a fair reason. . . . . Isn't it? I have heard that these clocks can be tampered with - BUT how easy? Am I just being paranoid? any info welcome?

There was an article in CAR magazine alikening the VAG gape to E Munsch's "the scream" It also pointed out that the poster for the film "Home Alone" was also a pistache of the same "students fave" painting. Made me laugh - as I had never noticed that

so many car manufacturers are getting the "nose" wrong at the mo worst offenders being VAG group but I guess imitation is the sincerest form of flattery

I like the way geezer lopes out of the car and casually brushes himself down. "I'll park that there then"

FurkiG60 Your car gets the sign of approval from my gf - how did you get your interiors shiney? Has it been retrimmed/restored. Or are you some jammy get - and the leather is as you got it? Mine needs some attention from some saddle soap. Beige is the way fwd -
you could say that about any "mass produced" sporting car from the 80/90's to be honest when did you last see a sweet std XR4?
