    Cool looking little kart. I hope you're able to secure it for a good price...I know you've wanted one a long time, so taking ModFather with you will help keep you in check.

    Can't say anything... other than I'd ditch the drilled rotors.

    Ok, why's that?
    As the owner doesn't know ANYTHING about the car, I need all the help I can get. And I see blue springs, drilled rotors, and a little bit of the exhaust with that funky insulation. And I have no idea what suspension/brakes/exhaust she's running, and neither does she. Lolol.

    Ok, I see where you're coming from. I don't plan on driving hard, but that's definitely something to check and change. Thanks for the heads up. :)

    So I ran a VIN decoder on it (Thanks Nathan!!), all the stuff that's in German only, is that equipment on the car? I'm a tad confused. Thanks in advance, gents.

    Google translate is your friend... Although there may not be a good direct translation. Those Germans know how to make everything overly complicated, including language.

    Right, I've been using Google translate. My question is: Does this car come equipped with the options listed only in German? With the 2nd option on the list (Sperrdifferenzial)? And I'm guessing that's LSD? Google won't translate.

    Whatever is listed, is what was ordered on the car. And yes, you have a factory LSD.
