Vehicle description
I HAVE ONLY HAD THIS CAR FOR ABOUT 5 MONTHS.
Put about 1800 miles on it during this time, I thought I wanted a bigger car, but really do not like to drive it as much as any of my other smaller cars, and I do not have passengers often so the three rows of seats are not useful to me.
The good, is I really think you can not get as much of a car enginewise, luxurywise, sizewise for this kind of money, if you usually drive with 2 or more passengers in the car, which is definitely NOT my case, this can be the car for you. Like any other car with 15 or 16 years of use, it will have some small details to be fixed, but it drives as it should (I guess for it"s size). Interior is in great condition, leather has no cracks. Engine feels strong, car is basically straight bar a couple details shown in pictures, most everything works as it should. Just replaced oil and filter with Mobil1 0-40 at 145,000 miles, but I will keep using it, so mileage will most likely change (although not by much).
The bad: I replaced the battery and secondary battery, but the message for the secondary still pops up with the white battery in the dash. Not sure if it has to be reprogrammed. I replaced the egr valve and fuel cap, as it gives error p404 but I think it needs one of the plastic hoses as it clears the light at times. re appears and then clears again. It gives the message for Adaptive Lights Inoperative, I read it is a sensor behind the mirror that gives this message but I have not tested or given much thought to it. The lights work well (this much better than my old Porsches and BMW). The hatch door works well with the remote, but when you open it by hand, the lever does not return and thus the button to lower it automatically does not work, but if you push it back just after pulling on it, everything works. It has a working window switch in the driver"s door but it is brown instead of black. Previous owner replaced it but I don"t use this car enough for it to bother me, and a new one is only like $30.00 here on ebay. I replaced the windshield wipers when I bought the car, but there is some damage from the old wipers on the windshield. Still it is such a huge glass that they do not impede view at all.
Suspension works, raises, lowers, etc, brakes seem good, a/c good enough for Florida.
I am selling AS IS WHERE IS. Meaning that I am not a certified mechanic, and can not asses to the condition of the vehicle. If you want to have it inspected before purchase, you are welcome to contact me, I will drive it to any service center to inspect within a 20 mile radius. VEHICLE HAS NO WARANTY
