[QUOTE="Dan84, post: 105593, member: 3887"] Uncle Bob Alloytechs if they are not serviced properly are prone to sludge in the top end of the motor which causes a host of issues. So if it doesn't have service history forget it. Check around the water pump for leaks The thermostat is at the back of the motor about the gear box and is a barstard to change. If you can use your phone to take pictures of it to see if it leaks. make sure you can start it cold. If it rattles it could need the timing chains changing. I have heard of the front transaxle failing. I have an 05 vz acclaim which I have put over 200000kms on and been good. Has taken me places where a conventional car shouldn't, lol. Dan84 [/QUOTE]
