 I am the one of the few lucky persons who actually has
one, so here is my 2 cents....

Yep, it covers all VW/AUDI models, beginning from '47 Bug.
No SEAT/Skoda models on my CD.

   It also shows the list price for parts in DM's  and I heard that it even
shows "book" time, haven't figured out where is it though...

 Nope, only European models are covered. But I've been able
to use it for finding  parts for my 5kt and 5ktq just fine :-)

  Win95/98/NT, 1280x1024 resolution and 256 colors is all it needs.

  If VW/AUDI wouldn't sell it to the public (at affordable price)
 it's their problem  :-)

BTW, I have 2 extra copies, one is "reserved"  and the
other one is up for grabs. E-mail me, first comes,  first served :-)
Or, if someone has a CD burner and willing to make a copies
for other listers, I'd be willing to temporarily provide the
"original".
