hey
im looking at buying a 1998 tf solara, well half way through buying it just waiting for approved load, what should i look out for when/if i get this car,
its immaculate like brand new not a mark on the interior except for the boot cover its a little worn the out side is in perfected condition as well,
cheers cookie

How many kms? Timing belt needs to be done every 100,000kms and is a $1000 service, so worth seeing if it's been done recently if the car is within +-10,000kms of the one or two hundred thousand mark.

If you're buying through private sale get an RACV check done on it. Well worth the $150 or so for the peace of mind that you're not buying a lemon, and if it is a lemon then the $150 for the check and not buying the car is a lot less than you'll end up paying to fix the thing if you did buy it.

Boot cover do you mean the black pseudo-leather stuff on the gearstick?? Every manual TE/TF i've seen has theirs worn to sh*t its terrible! I picked up a genuine monza leather replacement from supercheap for $20 and fitted it in replacement of mine.

i picked up a tf solara last yr for 7.5k wit jst 107,000km... great car... only thing to look for as been mentioned is service books and what services have been done.... also remember the gearbox serivce....

what features does urs have?

it fell through they wouldn't give me finance on it and now my second gen has a blown gear box
