Soarer's do not have tiptronic

I know. It had some tricky shifter kit on it which made it act like a Tiptronic. It took the kit 2weeks to reach Aus from the US. Similar to a Ratchet-Shifter mechanism.

Yeah, like all those cars. Audi, VW, Honda etc. great while under warranty, ok for the first 5 years but you don't want to own one when something fucks up or it'll cost more than the car is worth.

Try to buy a car that there are lots of around. One you can buy an engine or a transmission from a wreckers yard should the unthinkable happen or a car that doesn't have ridiculous parts prices. Toyotas are bland but reasonable to repair and maintain. Mazdas are good too. Subaru of course is my favourite for value versus driving experience.

So it have the cv autos control box on it with a shift kit... its still not tiptronic. It would of felt better because the shift kit makes them shift hard.

What are the most common 'read expensive', things that can go wrong with them, what should a purchaser be looking for?
