surprised thats not 1200 Euro

but, does it come with winter tires? How are the current tires on there now if they are not winter...? How does it look underneath? When was the last time the oil was changed, plugs wires, air filter, brake pads? Are maintenance records kept on it and are they available to give to you.

How does it sound when its started?

What kind of lemon warranty will you get? What year is it?

and the biggy, how many KM on the clock?

That wouldn't be important in a Ring Car

Said 1300€ spent over the last year in maintenance. Phone number is 0160 361 74193 Maybe I'll give them a ring at lunch to see if I could take it over to Autoskills and throw it up on the rack to have a peak at the underside.

iX is the AWD (allradgetrieb - Remember? :lol: ) which means more weight, more complexity and more stuff to break. Don't know if that's the best thing.

your probably right. lots of old crap to break and replace.
probably not the best thing for a budget ring car.

after being lowered the iX is NOT known for the drive train to hold up very well and it puts additionl strain on the axle shafts and then burns out the pinion bearings in the front and rear diffs. Also this adds resistance on the transfercase chain drive which is extremly costly to replace.

Too much for a Ring car. Ring cars should be around $500 at the most.
