Great little car, lasted me about 4 years, and then ground to a dead stop on the interstate after dropping all 5 quarts of oil. Pretty funny though, this elderly couple pulled up behind me even before I had a chance to get out of the car, and low and behold, the old guy gave me 5 quarts he had in his trunk, and followed me all the way home to make sure I was OK! Now my wife's first car was a 91 VW Golf. Then one Saturday I decided it needed Purple Flames. Best $50 I ever spent, Spray paint, Roll of Contact Paper for a template, exacto knife, Copper pipes and fitting for the canoe rack, and a spiffy set of fog lights. Amazingly enough, we sold the sucker for $950, and I still see it around town.
