more advice needed- 96 jgc laredo
Im test driving the vehicle tomorrow.
its a 96, loaded Laredo with 120k km.
I smell something fishy because he is not
asking much for it.. about 3k less than the
average cost here. Also, im positive he turned
back the mileage. If I like it, I'll have it inspected,
then make him an offer.
Seller is a broker, whatever that means. and there is a
bit of rust on the tip of the hood (passenger side), indicator
of high mileage.
Any other things I should keep an eye for?

Re: more advice needed- 96 jgc laredo
Good evening,
I just picked up a 1993 Jeep with a wack of KM's on it. It has 280,000KM on
it. It was listed in the autotrader and I think they scared everyone away
since they listed it at $3500. I went down there and drove it around the
block and got it for $3450 after tax. There is a knock in the engine which
showed its age and there was a little rust on it but nothing that isn't
repairable. I got it for about $3500 less then any other I saw with
150,000km's BUT I can go ahead and get the engine and tranny rebuilt with
the money I saved. That means that I basically picked up a 1993 Jeep with
0km's on the engine and tranny for about $7000 after tax. Yes, the other
components on it have high km's but I am handy.
If you can get it for a cheap price and you are handy then there is no
reason that you can't make it into a good reliable ride.
