Hi everyone!
I'm considering buying a founder's series Roadster.
Does anyone know if the early #'s are known to be more or less reliable than one of the 'normal' production versions?
I just keep remembering the early horror stories about reliability.
FWIW, I've not had much to worry about in 3+ years with a Founders' Series car. One switchpack replaced (this is not the battery pack), which could have been for any 1.5.
That said, the price is a little worrying, even if the outside is chewed up a bit. How many ideal miles on a full standard charge or range charge? CARFAX look ok?
If so, you could be in for a good bargain - no need to baby it initially, and can go for the 3.0 and repaint later if you want...

Oh, and figure in that you are likely going without any kind of warranty.
