Re: advise or a pssible corrado purches tommarow....... (i need a corrado)

i dont know a whole lot but check the water pump/belt side of the engine for antifreze if there is some there the waterpump is in need of replacing and also grab the front wheels and try to move them forward and back... if theres movement that means the control arm busshings are probabally going out. you should check the heated seats to see if they work or not,and the usual stuff like oil leaks and other coolant leaks....hope that helps a little

With only 44k, there can't be much wrong. I'd check the service records and the usual wear and tear items to get a sense of how well its been kept up. If its not abused, you can't go wrong.

get a CARFAX report before he buys it to make sure the car is ligit and actually has 44K, also 44K does not mean problem free, "Buci" bought his 93' SLC last year with 39K and he just about had everything go wrong, from sunroof, to heatercore, to a whole engine re-build. as well as cv joints, waterpump, radiator, clutch and a few other things....so just check the car out really good, make sure everything electrical is working and make the guy drop the price for everything that you find to be faulty. also do a magnet test to check for accidents, check the brake pads, clutch operation, proper idle and so on!...Hope that helped at all http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif
