Things to look out for?

[Brett McRae]

hey, a friend of mine is looing at buying a 2005 VZ Executive with about 105 000km on the clock, what are the major things to look for, anything special with the VZ's to keep an eye out for?
any help would be great, she is a good friend and don't want to let her buy a lemon.
Thanks

revs check blown head gasket ? milky oil etc.

Its not really a big thing, or even important. But 2 pet hates of mine with the VZ is the steering wheel controls breaking, and the handbrake boot getting loose lol.

i know the combination of buttons to hold in the vt/vx models to get into the hidden functions on the trip computer, what are the button combinations for the vz?
Thanks

It's either the two arrows pressed simultaneously or the mode and set button pressed while turning the ignition.

As said above, 9000 is a bit much for 105,000km on the clock. But check the oil, look for leaks, dont be scared to drive the car, check and see if the handbrake actually works (noticed a few VZs have it either not work at all, or be over tightened and strip the 'gear' and not stay up).

Though the price is a bit much, if you can see there are no leaks, or very little. Has clean oil and if possible a full service history it may be worth 9k.

Does it have the standard interior and body kit? Or has it been upgraded?
