Many Things to avoid road service, nothing major but things that need to be replaced. If they have records that show it was done great, no records then I would assume it needs to be done. Engine Oil and Filter - - - Coolant Flush - - - All Coolant hoses: Upper & Lower also heater hoses - - - SERP. BELT - - - Air Filter - - - Trans Service. If you are handy or know someone who is these are all very easy DIY items. Also make sure all brake lines do not have any rust on them!!!! If they do have a good shop look them over ASAP, never want to have an issue with your brakes.

Wally61 you probably already have but be sure to check the age of the tires. I bought a 325 and found out later that the tires were eight years old. I am a first timer too and never thought about the age of the tires just the tread depth.

Thanx for the info. How do you tell age of tires also must be not to many people have this model or there is not to many problems

Look on the sidewall of the tire. There will be four numbers assuming the tire was made after 2000. The first two numbers are the week of the year the tire was made, the second two are the year the tire was made. Watch this when you purchase new tires. Some could sit in storage for a year or so and you will not be buying "new" tires.
