I do not want or like too many surprises after having Gump. With the current search for viable cabriolet fun, I take a ground cloth and ramps to every car I look at. Good way to get underneath for a cursory peek for leaks and weirdness. If it is good enough to pass that inspection, then I am having my indy do an extended comb through. So far the w107 on review do not meet spec to waste 4 hours shop time for full cavity probe
