found a EGG. . . .what do you think?

Ive been looking for a previa for a minute now. I found one for 600 bucks. It has 220k on her. It will be a daily driver/project car. Ive been looking at known problems for previa's. I have found the biggest thing is the sads. (supp. acc. drive shat). Doesnt seem like that big of a deal. But then again I wonder if I should just replace the whole engine and not have any wories for a while. Im just thinking out loud I guess. What do you guys think?

$600. Cheap but look at the mileage. You are taking a huge chance buying a vehicle with high mileage not knowing if it was maintained properly. Known problems are oil pan/head gasket leak and some kind of oil leak on the S/C models. My advice is to get someone else like a previa with lower mileage or better yet a VIP car like a G50 (Q45).

My dad had a previa and the only thing he had trouble was the shocks. They were blown pretty bad but the engine was running strong, but then again the engine had only 196k miles on it at the time. No oil leaked in our previa..

G50's can be in just as bad shape with the same symptoms, but cost you more money for the vehicle. Question which is easier to repair and bring up to status Q. GL with what you choose.

$600..... That's real cheap, IMO. Got any pics?
