Question regarding a 1985 740 Turbo 700

posted by  someone claiming to be Guest Poster on  Wed Oct 27 02:56 CST 2004 [RELATED]

You nailed it. He is asking $900 O.B.O. for the car! Unless the car is pristine I will not bother. If it is pristine and this seal is the only issue I'll focus on the guy selling it. If I get the feeling that he is a good guy, and not bull-shitting me, I may take a chance on it. I’ll offer him $700. I’ll Buy it, fix the seal, get some new plugs, and off I go. On the other hand, if I pick up on any deceptive body language, or if I get the feeling he knows that the seal is not the sole reason its smoking, I’ll walk away.

On this model are there any other frequently broken things I should worry about?
