Hello everyone, for the first time I find the posts in this forum very helpful and extremely good. I am an old Swede (brought up in Sweden), and family has decided (finally) to change the Toyota Avensis 2.2D Combi against a Volvo XC90. Since we will drive very few KM in the future, gasoline version for us is the preferred alternative, we just don’t like the D5 Diesel. (no open, but it’s just a matter of taste, if it were 320CDI engine of MB this would be We have at present two alternatives available, both private providers: 1) 05/2005 V8 Executive EU model with 134tKm, fully equipped for €16t. Black / black, complete checkbook, 8 times matured. 2) 07/2005 V8 Summum USA import (already five years ago) with 86tKm, also quite fully equipped for €15t. Silver / beige, complete checkbook., 8 times matured. Is there what we should / should be careful about, especially with the US import? (had the l Did hours read me here almost all the posts, especially with regard to automatic transmissions). Is it worth it / should one examine the car again at a test workshop? (I am not 100% known with the circumstances in Germany, have settled in Sweden and there are ADAC similar independent test stations) Another (dumb) question? Since private purchase, where do I finance the car best / easiest? (we live in Munich). We look at the cars at the end of next week, and w will probably make the decision then, so all contributions until then warmly welcome!! A thousand thanks in advance and Heja Sverige!
