Hi to all in the forum, I am Chris from Greece and I am looking for a piece of advice.

I have found a CTT 2005 with 35000 miles that a bank sells after being abandoned for 2+ years and not in garage. As the price is tempting and I am looking forward to spend some cash to bring back to the road.

What do you thing I must expect in terms of Service, taking for granted that all liquids in engine and trans are going to be replaced, new tyres etc.

P.S. probably a conversion to 2007 F/L look is a thought.

 

I picked up a truck with a similar storage time. It will need a lot of maintenance items before it is back on the road. GL

 

Welcome Chris Does the bank have any previous records of what was done before?

 

They told me that they have the car at a logistics facility and that is from a lease. The service history is in the car, and they additionaly gave me the VIN number to have a check before i go and see it in person.

I know that sometimes, even in CTT's with good service history etc, you can blink and spent 2-3k but I still believe that it's bargain.

I am mostly concerned about bearings and other parts that can't be lubricated immediately. Probably if I finally purschase it I will tow it and not drive it.
