Yes the car does only have the claimed mileage, all wear indications point to it, plus being in the neighbourhood I did a bit of seriptitious sleuthing :-) . I would like to buy the thing but the shear quantity and cost of the repairs to date is more than intimidating it's ludicrous... it screams 'Lemon' to my cynical ears.
Interspersed were records of regular and constant fluid /filter changes, don't forget this owner paid a LOT of $$$ for this thing, and ecomomising on maintenance was not an issue.
Yes the Dealer probably overcharged (but it's from a large local outfit with a reasonable reputation).. what's more worrying is that few of your identified 'problem' areas have yet to be attended to.
Can you, in all honesty reassure a prospective purchasor that this car's history is atypical?/ ( a co-worker returned his '96 Aero under 'lemon' laws, so I'm a bit gun shy)
