After I bought it in the May 2013 at 32k, it only required this work to refresh it:
Fresh battery, Whalen's seat bushings, the Valentine update, Mobile1 and Mahle filter, OEM fuel filter, radiator system cleaned and machine-flushed / filled, replaced brake fluid (ATE Type 200 DOT4)
What it needs, to the best of my knowledge .…
As it turns out, long-term garage queens apparently don’t prefer heat / sunlight - within months of purchasing the car, the Llumar Titanium window tint creased on the passenger window (see pic), and the Xpel “clear bra” paint protection developed minor cracks uniformly everywhere. And the paint disappeared off the hood roundel !
The steering wheel-mounted stereo head unit controller has just stopped working.
Some spares too…
