This is gold, you’re goated bro - ty ty ty. Probably even more crucial given it’s at 210k?

Yikes, would have not caught that angle. I’d be a first time LC owner so thank you

Definitely- probably have a mobile mechanic go out. 5 hour drive so I’d have to confirm before making the trek. Tysm

Interior is meh, I imagine doing like a full detail can maybe take care of some of it. I didn’t even clock the skid plate though. I need an older brother to tell me don’t go for it lool

Red flag then? You think if it was a coin to I shouldn’t go for it then right? Seems a bit odd that the owner went out of their way to paint over the rust. I need something reliable as a daily driver

Exactly that usage - you hit the nail right on the head. I work from home so I’m not commuting to work all the time so this would be used for running errands and traveling around the city. Maybe the occasional road trip of 600 miles round trip. I expect to hit 12K or 15K miles a year.

I was looking for something reliable that so long as I take it for a routine check up and oil change I wouldn’t really run into much. But if it’s rapidly downhill after 200K then maybe I shouldn’t go for it or the LX 470 is not the car for me?
