Okay, the last answer to this thread was more then 2 years ago, so I think it's time for an update.
My G10 for sure I still own, it drives and in my opinion it looks better then bader. A lot of problems with the carburator in the past SHOULD now fixed in the 2009 season. But it was not really bad so some times the engine stops some times while stopping on traffic light.
2007 and 2009 I was droven to Switzerland with it,
Droven km's:
2007: 4805,7 KM
2008: 3120,9 KM
2009: 4855,8 KM
Over all 12.782,4 KM since the restore was finished.
Next year comes a new movie to the Cinemas (and also as TV Movie in 3 parts) where my little car becomes a small sightseen. The Movie is called "Carlos the Jackal" and comes 2010 to cinemas.

I am very happy and proud to my little Charade G10, he is for sure not a car for daily use, but I like to feel the old kind of driving car...
