Laura's 2001 GLS Black LadyBug
This is my baby, I bought her slightly used at almost 2 years old and around 20,000 miles. She now has 61,000 miles, and a few dings (not all caused by me I'm happy to say). I would like to get re-painted due to highway stone chips on the front and sun fading on back fenders. Also the headliner is coming unglued (a common problem with many cars in Florida due to extreme heat). At home, she has always been in garage or carport, but at work sad to say, she has to bake in the sun.
I hate: the cupholders, the awkward arrangements under the hood, how hard it is to work on engine parts (especially what should be common maintenance items, like air filter and battery). I love: the versatility, general coolness, headroom, spaciousness. Even with flaws, LadyBug gets a lot of looks (especially people seem to like my brake light cover my husband made for her). I hate: cassette player?!??!??In this day and age?!?I love: iTrip for my iPod so I play what I want to hear anyway. More mods and changes coming as time permits.
