  • I have one ridding here in Portugal too and i love it!

  • now reset to 160k and sell it for a good price to romania or smthing :)

  • sick music

  • @Pulchism Good luck for your car! Note: the car belongs to my dad, he's the one that deserve the congrats. I'm just spreading the word! Thanks

  • @Lytru sorry I missed that. 600k is astonishing, you must drive her pretty precisely to squeeze that kind of life out of the clutch. Mines approaching 200k and steering and transmission feel like they're on the list, though I was expecting the clutch first :) I was planning to drive it into the ground, but it looks like it will take another 16 years!

  • @Pulchism 1st Clutch at 646.916 Km as you can see in the description box. Thanks for watching!

  • @Lytru how many clutches?

  • Sorry,what kind of oil did you use?

    5W40 ?

    Castrol?

  • You don't have any gearbox problems??
