Thanks. Ah, the higher hour count is the more recent. Had it backwards.

Yeah. I was really excited (happy) when the seller told me the car had a recent rms seal replacement. Call me crazy.

Divide the hours into the miles. Durametric says 35 is the average but if you have a city car you could be down in the high 20's or if your car spends most of its time on the freeway on long commutes then you could be up in the low 40's.

There is a programmer that dealers have that can adjust the mileage down illegally so if the hours are high and the miles are low then there is the possibility that someone tampered with the computer. It's illegal but dealers do it.

My p-dealer replace the RMS on my C2S as a condition of purchase. Car sat on their lot for 4 months so the RMS seal dried up and started leaking... fairly common cause of this issue. Looks like you found a great example of a C2S... what type of silver is that? Color really pops on that avatar.

Thanks. Normal silver. Photo was taken in the fall at dusk, right after a 16 hr drive from Maine (car's prior home). That was a good day.
