Thank you. They missed the battery and fuel pump location.
And I did know that "Minuspunkte" means Cons. I lived in England for several years and I noticed many cars advertized with "Bluespot" as one of the accessories. Took some time for me to realize that the cars were fitted with Blaupunkt radios.
