What year, how many miles; where has it lived? Knowing what work has been done, would be helpful. Have you looked up service history or have the VIN? The main things I would look for on the service history (aside from regular maintenance) are the radiator replacement, valley plate leak, cam tower leak and timing tensioner/sprocket issues (early models), AHC issues/component replacement. These are all issues normally in the 100k to 150k mileage range and only the radiator and valley plate seem inevitable. Some would argue the valley plate leak isn't inevitable, but I suspect that probably just means they haven't looked close enough yet.
ill ask and find out
I can pull a Carfax if need be
Hmmm! Did he buy it from his grand parent last year?
yes... I found one today locally with only 97,000 miles so have at it. Thank you all very much for trying to help.
found one locally today with under 100,000 miles. Thank you all very much for your help.
was it any good?
Condition doesn't match my expectation of how and where the car was used based on conversation with seller. Seller was not up front and misleading about the vehicle history, totally dismissed the fact from his own document. PM me if you want details.
