New and Pre-owned Cadillac, Chevrolet, Ford, Lincoln, Mercury Dealer in Lewistown, PA , Lake Ford Lincoln Mercury

it has really high miles but i'm interested. i haven't talked to the dealership yet, just wanted to share here and see if anyone had suggestions on what to ask and look for when i check it out. it's loaded pretty good and looks immaculate inside and out. so i was hoping if the engine was maintained as much as the cosmetics it would still be a reliable car for at least a few years. thanks in advance for any help!

 

No one on here is a mind reading wizard or a car whisperer. Price is high first off. What you need to do is drive it with the radio off and no one else in it. Listen for problems. Make sure it shifts correct & it doesn't pull, that the power steering isn't noisy. Check for leaks under the car. Imply about a service history. And above all take it to a mechanic that's not in any way related to the dealership and have then check it out.

I bought a 2000 2.7T w/ 120,000 for $4,500. Nothing but problems since, but I knew it was messed up since it was so cheap. I'm $3,000 in repairs into this car & countless hours of my life gone lol. But it drives like nothing else ( at least that I can afford)

 

i would definatly make sure the timing belt has been done!
