I am planning to buy an used Cl 2.3, Auto w/80K mi on it. I went & checked it out, the check engine light was on - owner said today is the first day it has lit up so she will check with the dealer. I noticed that the brakes [drums on the outside] are rusted because - she garaged it for 2 years. Interiors are v.good. Now my question is if the check engine light is fixed & made sure a good mechanic checks the car out, in the long run would it be worth buying it? What else I need to check befre I go ahead with it?
Help. TIA. |
is the price lower than blue book?
is the car better than blue book? do you like the car (really?) does she have maintance records? If maintained the vehicle is capable of 300k+ miles |
oh and its big maintence is on the horizon.
at 105k miles you need timing belt, valve adjust, spark plugs, possiable water pump, filters, lots of fluids changed. AKA a 600-800 dollar repair. |
