Asked by DA (7points) October 31st, 2015

I’m looking at a buick enclave 2008. 135,000 mile for $9800. one owner and they took great care of it. Any advice if I should or shouldn’t. Anyone know of any problems these cars have had at high mileage? Thanks!!!

Do they have repair/maintenance records? See if the timing belt has been changed. Also, do they have a carfax, so you can see if it was ever in an accident?

And, ask about having a mechanic of your choosing give it a check out. Might cost you a little but it might save you thousands.

I typically stay away from American brands. They, Ford especially, have made progress in recent years.
