Make sure they had all the fluids changed reasonbly close to schedule. I went on a wild goose chase to FLA earlier this year for a cherry '93 MV (40,000 miles). The original owner never had the coolant changed, or brake fluid for that matter. I walked. It was an expensive lesson, but hopefully cheaper than buying the van. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Steve Sandlin" <vwcarlocks@HOTMAIL.COM> To: <vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM> Sent: Wednesday, September 11, 2002 2:24 PM Subject: purchase advise for Eurovan
