Things that don't work right:
- CEL on (EGR flow)
- CD player inop, but the JVC radio works fine
- w/s chips & cracks don't interfere with the driver's view
- headlights fogged out
- shocks worn; land yacht
- minor oil & coolant leaks that you'd expect on a 300Kmi engine
- brake pedal gear cracked (like all of them), so it doesn't adjust now
- lots of minor scuffs & dents
- driver's visor hanger broke, so it now has a black steel hook — Steve83
