Ladies/Gents,
Total newbie here but did do my research and read as much as I could about these vehicles. That said, I am looking for one (I am in Canada and right now due to COVID, buying from the US does complicate quite a lot the importing process) and found very few available.
One that I found, where according to the seller everything works (i.e. air suspension, etc) does have a rusted undercarriage. I have not seen the car yet and according to him it is surface rust/scaling, no rust through, no holes anywhere. He promptly sent me pictures what is a good sign as he did state the undercarriage condition clearly on his ad. As I do not know much about these and DID read quite a lot of horror stories about rust on the LX 470, what do you guys think about it looking at the pictures? Also there is a connector on the top left side in one of the pictures that seems unplugged but as I do not know these cars I have no idea what it is used for. Some parts I am sure could be easily swapped (i.e. I believe the tranny brace).
What do you guys think?
Cheers!
