I don't know much about ix's and thier reliability. I just wondered if you would buy an ix with 240k on it. Any ix specific issues?
Would you hesitate to buy an ix with 240k.

Just like any E30, it all depends on previous maintenance and documentation. I wouldn't immediately dismiss any E30 based solely on miles.

i would, unless the engine been rebuilt.. same goes for tranny/trans case, IF it does have immaculate everything with proper maint. then I'd give it another 100k miles till it would need some major overhaulsigpicComment

I wish I could help, but I am not familiar with an IX since I live in the south. Only seen one on the road and it had northern tags on it. But I wouldn't give $1900 for an e30 with 240k unless it was immaculate and been well maintained. I have an 87 IS with 260k on it and I only paid $700 and the body was great with zero rust.sigpic

Depend on if or when the transfer case has been swapped out. Or if you had a spare parts car. Driveline issues are expensive on iX's.Comment

my transfer case and tranny have 250k on them - as long as it's not abused and has been maintained, it's just like any other E30. don't know if I'd pay $1900 for it though.Comment

Yeah, if i bought it i wouldn't pay 1900, more like 1500. I was just checking to see if you guys think its even worth putting a bid in on. I think for my personal needs and wants a subaru AWD wagon would be much more affordable and practical cause i need a good snowboard hauler/winter beater.97 tacoma 5 spd 4 cylinder
