Denis-its a v2-97, thus the harness issue at least was solved. It has been maintained, my only fear is that evap failure sounds like its a very common issue, but not universal. I know that the newer trans can be a weak spot.

Everything works on this one, even the flipout handle on the trunk. Vac pump seems strong still and doesn't reset. Leather perfect except for a minor bolster scuff.

I know it'll eat bushings etc due to its mass, expect that, A8's, 740's etc all are prone so not unique to this car.
