Having owned an 02 since new in 1976, and tinkered, tweaked, replaced, repaired, refilled, crawled under, crawled into, and driven them for years. I no longer covet thy neighbors 02.
Since getting the Touring....I am fulfilled. The Euro design is clean and simple (no Federal reflectors, bumpers, smog plumbing etc) Great visibility, utilitarian (Hatchback, fold-down rear seats). In a sea of grey and beige cars, Inka orange really stands out and contrasts well with black and silver.
Driven daily, short trips, long road trips, back road trips. Brings smiles and thumbs-up whenever you venture out. That is what these great little cars are made for. Driving, driving, driving. Bone stock, 1802, single barrel solex, 4 speed, 4:11 diff. My car is reliable, not tempermental and a sheer pleasure to drive. My to-do list for the touring is very short...#1 Drive..
