Help researching a 200 series

[snowmatt1]

Hi guys,

I'm a future LC owner. I've been looking seriously for about 3 months now, and my tastes keep changing. Now I'm looking at affordable 200 series options. I'm going to visit this one this week, but on paper, can you tell me if you'd avoid this one? Its about 25K.

Thanks!

Matt

3P OK Rule:

One minor... Probably
Two minor... Probably not
Three......... Probably nuts

On the other hand, owner 2 drove it for another 60k miles after repairs. Check the Toyota owners page with your vin for service history .

So, I have gone back and forth with both these thoughts. Yes, accidents! Ugh. But then again, it has been a while and still going strong. I will probably pass and keep searching and staying up late on Ih8mud daydreaming.

No thanks. If damage was so bad that it had to be sold at auction after repair.... I would not touch it.

Being in the car business, accidents on the report don't scare me in the least bit as long as it was fixed properly.

Auction sales mean nothing negative either. Lots of vehicles go to auction, it often means the dealership didn't want to have it on their lot. It didn't meet their criteria, so off it went. A lot of Lexus dealers don't want anything over 100K miles, for instance.
