No one, including me, is bagging on you - just trying to help you consider all the possible outcomes is all. Glad she likes the car now and hope she learns to love it and its impending issues.

Thanks for your valuable insights about all the possible outcomes. And for bagging on me.
I'm not going to argue with you about the obvious differences between a $4000 Buick, Prius, Camry, Avalon, Civic, etc. and a 1993 190E Sportline LE; if you're that blind, you'll never see. All of those ****boxes are equally moneyholes, if not more so, and at the end of the day all you'll have is an overpriced $1,000 car waiting for a tow on the side of the freeway in 105 F temps.
Best Regards,
Rob
