V6 suffers with head gasket problems.

If it's a Jap import, a lot of the V6's are, has it had the gearbox fluid changed.

If its immaculate, it could be a good buy. Quite a head-turning car for £3k = especially with a change of wheels. Check the rear of the hood for leaks round the rear window, a new one with glass heated window will be around a grand including fitting

Is it definitely a 99 'new edge' car? ie squarer headlights and tail lights as per my blue car which I've owned for 9 years







I have also owned a '94 convertible too

Its hard to gauge prices as there aren't many to choose from, but at that price you shouldn't lose much when you come to sell it. Get insurance quotes first, as some companies quote silly prices if you haven't had LHD experience.
