Re: Need advice

You're looking at a 21 year-old discontinued imported vehicle. Parts for it will likely be more expensive than a newer model. Being older, it will have some problems at some point. The frequency and severity of those may depend on how hard you drive it and how well you maintain it.

On the plus side, it is a one-owner vehicle with what looks to be very well-kept maintenance records so you should be able to identify if there have been any chronic issues with it by looking at those records. New paint is obviously needed but there appears to be no sign of rust.

Before purchasing it, I would check with your local dealership or with other shops in your area to see if they have anyone familiar with the SVX, especially if you are not particularly keen on doing things yourself.
