Max out the seat height and you pretty much have a 360 degree unobstructed view that makes you feel like the Pope.
My Golf has it too but I can't get high enough without my head touching the ceiling. I have to Fat Joe lean back with the seat jacked up. The Corolla hatch loaner I had for 2 weeks could get the same-ish seating position. The roof was higher since it was a peasant spec with no sunroof.
I wish we got the Sportsvan from Europe

Looks like even more cost cutting on the mk8.5
My gti badge on the fender is an actual badge. This looks super tacked on.
Nothing aliexpress can’t fix but still….
Oh and nice Alfa rip off wheels.

I know it's not vogue to promote Tesla but brand aside, this would be a pretty decent buy
2015 Model S 85D, 150K kms, with free supercharging, clean title, $22.5K, buy it on the dip. Just have to delete all the T logo on it. https://www.facebook.com/share/15Vu5M51kW/ 
Here is another one 2014 Model S 85, 155k Kms, at $21.8K, again, in grey, free supercharging - https://www.facebook.com/marketplace...b-1f06198f7557 | |

Cybertruck owners might strongly disagree that Tesla, as a product, 'nothing wrong'.  | |

Wasn't the build quality on old Teslas pretty poor? Terrible panel gaps and such.

Yeah, things look door handles will always go bad on these.
Couple things to look for..
1) AWD model because RWD rear motors WILL fail.
2) At least one battery pack replacement because they WILL fail because of primitive BMS.
3) Media screen/computer have been upgrade because they WILL run out of RAM/fail
4) Has autopilot computer.
They can be a good buy.
Range and fast charging speed is usable for Vancouver climate/driving even without heatpump.

I still remember when manic used to promote these stupid things and say Ferrari / Lambro guys were taking Teslas as an alternative.
That fad died pretty quick when teslas turned into the new uber eats weapon of choice.

Then I clicked into it and it's not m-tech II and unfortunately still overpriced. Damn. For kids these days, the E90 should be "my" E46, which means this should be E36 pricing by now.. but I guess a sorted clean E36 would have been around this price (idk i wasn't looking or I don't remember there to be any). Wild.
I didn't know non-m's could option for adjustable lumbar seats. Thought it was just an opt. for M3. That is however, a very nice touch... if it still works.

Yeah, seems reasonably priced. It’s more of a well-kept, mature spec than the enthusiast’s dream—perfect for someone less serious about their road car or just wanting a lower-hassle window into the past like me.
Even though it's not a ZHP/ZAM car, it still has the 6 speed.
ZSP (Sport Package) gave it bolstered seats/stiffer suspension and it also has Premium and Cold Weather packs because of the moon roof, ski bag and headlight washers.
