Looking at a 2009 DTS with about 70,000 kilometers, anything special concerns or problems I should be aware of?

Re: Any advice?

Read the sticky posts just above this one, and look through the pages of threads here for items of interest. Same advice as buying any other used car - do your homework, and Caveat Emptor !

Seems to me a low mileage vehicle.

I don't know how far is the Caddy located. If it's locally listed then I would strongly recommend getting it thoroughly inspected by your mechanic. If not then you can rely on: 1) the Car Fax Report and, 2) an inspection by a professional.

Remember: CARFAX is a voluntary reporting database - usually, the only info you see is title transfers and required emissions inspections. Even flood damaged car slip past CARFAX quite frequently.

"Honey, I smashed the Deville up pretty bad - Cooter and BooBoo fixed it with a hammer and some Bondo ! Tell CARFAX, will you ?"
