 I bought my 1989 syncro westy a year and a half ago without driving it or
 seeing it in person.  I saw pictures and had a friend look it over (even
tho
 she hadn't the slightest idea what she was looking at or for).  I've had a
 few problems with it, but nothing that I would have noticed before I bought
 it had I seen it and driven it.


 Not the way I usually buy cars, but it seemed like a good thing to do and
 I'm literally a happy camper.
