Found a small piece of history of my car
Took the seat out to have a tear fixed. Under it I found this parking receipt from a parking garage in Stuttgart, dated november 10, 1992. Since I bought my car without any documentation...I am happy to add this to the file.

I too have found little documentation so when I was running a line for an iPod into the cassette box, I found the date it was last out .. Who ever 'Am' is...thanks for a great car!

Very nice find Aryan.
I had a similar one. About a year after I bought the car I found a receipt for the sales tax, dated December '92 in Botswana. It was inside the manual for the Blaupunkt radio which had been removed but was still with the loose spares for the car when I bought it. The car was originally imported into SA but must have been re-exported to Botswana then subsequently brought back. Knowing what sales tax cost in those days I worked out the selling price. Terrifying. Even today the money that PO paid would get you a fairly high spec BMW or Mercedes.

I also found several 'spare' contacts out of the wiper/sunroof switches and a little Porsche Design catalog. the PD catalog had my Chronograph that I've had since 1983 and all the sunglasses were those BIG aviator/shooters!
